Airing Saturday, January 29
Depeche Mode's “Spacewalker” plays as the words FIRST CONTACT flash across a starry background. The video switches to Biggs as he sits in front of a slot machine in the Luxor casino. He's dressed in a shirt and tie, with nice black slacks. He has the Overdrive Championship slung over his shoulder.
”Welcome, one and all, to the pay per view edition of First Contact! Not to say that you have to pay to watch my show, but rather, the episode in which I discuss our upcoming Survive and Conquer pay per view in great detail. Obviously the main attraction for this pay per view is the 40-Person Survive and Conquer match that will conclude the show, but this is more than a one match card. At the very least it's two, but perhaps more. First up, there's the Tag Team Title Match, where The Exchange Rate defends their titles against The Beautiful Disaster. Now C.J. Gates and Blade have held the belts since One Night in Hell, and I don't see them losing the belts just yet, even if they're facing off against a husband and wife team like Tim and Kaycee Young. As much as I personally dislike C.J. Gates and Blade, when they're one, they're hard to beat, and they're definitely going to be on as they defend the tag belts. My pick is for the Exchange Rate to retain.”
“The second match is Link versus Mr. Dangerous, a match that seems to be put together just so these two competitors could have something to do. Now I beat Link soundly a few weeks ago, but Mr. Dangerous hasn't really shown anything to suggest that he's going to be able to beat a competitor even as far fallen as Link. It's a toss up of a match, for all the wrong reasons, but I'll go with Mr. Dangerous, just because Link sucks that much.”
“Up third is the Blaze of Glory Match for the Xtreme Title between Diamante Valentine and XXX Fire. Now I know that these two were the other half of my tag match on Overdrive a week and a half ago, but I'll be honest, I don't have very high hopes for a match where the main object is to set your opponent on fire. I still have bad memories about the time Chris Cyrus competed against Slade Craven in this very match, and I can tell you first hand, this kind of match is needlessly dangerous and sadistic. That being said, Diamante Valentine himself is needlessly dangerous and sadistic, and gets my pick to retain.”
“The fourth match on the card features Terry Marvin taking on A.J. King. Seeing that Marvin is scheduled to participate in the Survive and Conquer match later in the night, I wouldn't put it past him to put in some half-brained effort and lose this match quickly to save himself for the more important match later on.”
“I'm going to skip my Overdrive Title defense for now, because believe me, I still have a lot more to say about that, but it would ruin the flow of my PPV prediction portion of the show, so I'll leave it at this, I will be leaving the MGM Grand still APW Overdrive Champion. You can bet on it.”
“Now Matt Ward versus the UK Kid on paper doesn't even look fair. One is the Link's little lap dog, and the other is undefeated so far in APW. And it doesn't just look unfair, it is unfair how badly Matt Ward is going to get defeated. I may not have anything for or against the UK Kid, or Matt Ward for that matter, but I recognize a talented wrestler when I see one, and the UK Kid is just that. Let's just hope he doesn't have any delusions of grandeur and come chasing after my Overdrive Championship anytime soon, because then I'd have to humble him.”
“As for the main event, the wild, 40-Person Survive and Conquer Match, well, there's just too many quality names in there to even try to pick a winner. But I can tell you who's not going to win, and that man is Pence Weatherlight! That punk thinks that he's going to try and rocket himself into the main event picture by coming up big in the Survive and Conquer match, because he realizes it's going to take a small miracle to help him recover from the depths he's fallen to! Well Pence, I hate to say this to you, but there will be no miracle. You will enter the match, and you'll get tossed right back out, simple as that. But if I were forced to pick a winner for this match, how can I vote for anyone but Level-One? Two years ago, he won it from the number one position, and last year, he made it to the final three! Considering he's without the APW Heavyweight title at the moment, it's pretty obvious that he's hungrier than ever to win the big one once more! And sure, he made a mess of things by dabbling in the Free Agency, needlessly making himself a bigger target than he already was, but let's face it, you could paint a Bullseye on Level-One's back, and he'd still come out scott free! That's my pick, and I'm sticking to it.”
“Now onto my match with 'The Second Coming' Criss Cassidy. The only thing 'Second Coming' about Cassidy is the stink that lingers after him as he passes by! It's like he leaves a place, but the stench he leaves remains, reminding you of how awful he actually is. I'm not attacking Cassidy's bathing habits, but rather his dedication and skill in the ring. As I mentioned on yesterday's show, Cassidy has a habit of coming up, well, short in bit time title matches. Cassidy, you called yourself Mr. Pay-Per-View, but looking at your pay per view record since coming to APW, well, if you're Mr. Pay-Per-View, I'd want my money back! Let's break it down here. At Test for the Best, you beat Shaun Kilgore and Leila Ferrahi before losing to Sally Talfourd in the finals. Two and one, not bad for a pay per view record to begin, and then you made it one better at Shockwave, beating Leila again to go three and one. Come One Night in Hell, you got pinned in the Elimination Chamber, being the second man removed from the contest! You're down to three and two. Up next is your Christmas Chaos match against The Number, the man who forced you onto the injured list. You were able to get your revenge and bring yourself up to a very respectable four and two at pay per views. But lets take away the meaningless matches, and you get brought down to a pathetic zero and two! When the lights are on bright, and the pressure is high, Cassidy, you just can't seem to win it! If you were truly Mr. Pay-Per-View, you'd know how to win the big one. If you were truly Mr. Pay-Per-View, you'd be APW Heavyweight Champion by now. If you were truly Mr. Pay-Per-View, then you should be more than able to beat me tomorrow night at the MGM Grand and be crowned the APW Overdrive Champion! But you aren't Mr. Pay-Per-View, and my title is very much safe Sunday night, as you have about as much a chance of beating me as you do winning the jackpot on one of these slots!”
Biggs puts a quarter in and pulls down on the lever. The wheels spin, and it stops on the combination that pays off the big Jackpot! Lights start flashing, sirens are whirling, and coins start raining from out of the machine! Biggs has a huge smile on his face as he grabs his bucket and starts scooping up the coins. An attended comes by with a couple more buckets, while the crowd on hand claps and cheers. Once Biggs is done scooping up the money, he turns back to the camera.
“Excuse me for a moment while I go cash these in...”
The video cuts to black.
When it pops back on, Biggs is now wearing an extravagant blue jacket, lined with diamonds and sapphires. He has a large grin across his face still.
”Now that that's taken care of, where were we? Oh yes, about how your chances of winning against me are as likely as you winning the slots. And while the analogy didn't go quite as I planned, I'm not complaining about the results. The fact is that I won the slot, not you, so the analogy still kind of works. It also shows that I have considerable luck. It's been said before that sometimes it's better to be lucky than good, but what if you're both? What just happened proved that I'm one of the luckiest sons of guns alive, and then the fact that I'm the only ever three time APW Overdrive Champion speaks to my considerable talent, so I guess I'm both lucky and good, which is totally unlucky for you, Cassidy. Because as much as you hope to beat me, Cassidy, even you have to realize that you don't have the type of talent necessary to overcome me. It was already established in yesterday's show about how your skill set, while good for what it is, is incredibly limited. You're a one dimensional fighter, Cassidy, taking on one of the most skilled and adaptable wrestlers this business has ever seen! You're going to need a little bit of luck to try and beat me, and that's on top of the supposed help you're going to get from praying. But that's not going to be enough, Cassidy, not by a long shot! Quite simply put, I am better than you in absolutely every way in that ring. Not only that, but fortune smiles upon me, not you. You're walking into a losing battle here, Cassidy. You might just be better off swallowing your pride and forfeiting right now. Sure, it might hurt your rather sizable pride to concede defeat before we even step in the ring, but it'll be a lot less painful than actually going toe-to-toe with me and getting flat out embarrassed! Cassidy, I'm not just going into this match to beat you, I'm going in to humiliate you!”
“But why do I want to humiliate you, Cassidy? It's really quite simple. I don't like hypocrites. Can't stand them! And with the way you chose to live your life, I can't think of many people more hypocritical than you! Maybe Pence Weatherlight, but that's beside the point. My point is this, Cassidy, and I've been trying to hammer this into your thick skull again and again, but the fact is that while you claim to walk in God's light, your arrogance and pride don't allow you to see the truth, that you are living so counter to God's will as spelled out in the Bible that He can't be with you, no matter how hard you wish to believe it so. One thing I've never seen you do in all your ramblings about being God's elect is cite scripture as to why you believe it so. How sad is it that I, a fall away, am able to cite the Bible more effectively than God's apparent chosen one? Well, it's not, because you aren't God's chosen one! But if you don't believe me, than listen to God's very word...
1 John 1:5-10
This is the message we have heard from him and declare to you: God is light; in him there is no darkness at all. If we claim to have fellowship with him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live out the truth. But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin.
If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. If we claim we have not sinned, we make him out to be a liar and his word is not in us.
“Now I know that's a little bit more scripture than you're used to reading in your daily bible time, Cassidy, but it spells out very clearly why you aren't with God. When you claimed that you could purify me from my sins the other day, well, you made yourself out to believe you had the same power as Jesus, that you are Jesus' equal. If you believe you're Jesus' equal, you must believe that you are without sin. However, if you don't actually believe that you are without sin, but are still Jesus' equal, then you're implying that Jesus sinned. Either way, Cassidy, you're showing a belief that goes against the central building block of your professed Christian faith. That central building block being that Jesus came into this world and lived without sin, and was sacrificed as a pure offering to cleanse humanity from their sins. I believed this once, and I still would if it weren't for people like you who twist this message for their own personal gains.”
“Any way you slice it it, Cassidy, you're a liar, and as the scripture I shared attests, the truth is not in you. The fact is, Cassidy, is that you are too gosh darn prideful to admit that you're wrong. Heck, you're too gosh darn prideful to admit that you're a normal human being, one who makes mistakes, one who knows that he needs help. And I'm offering you help, Cassidy, I really am. Because I want you to be able to be honest with yourself. There's nothing I despise more than somebody who lies to themselves and builds a false image of themselves in their minds, because it doesn't affect just them. In Pence Weatherlight's case, he got the fans to buy along into the fact that he may be a decent person so he wouldn't have to acknowledge the truth that he was a miserable human being. In your case Cassidy, at best, you're turning people away from the Christian faith, at worst, you're teaching them a lie! That's on you, Cassidy! That's squarely on you! And you're too gosh darn prideful to admit it. You need to confess to yourself Cassidy, and to your God, that you are nothing more than a fraud. That you've concocted this self narrative that paints you in a great light, because you're too afraid to acknowledge the truth.”
“So you see, Cassidy, I'm not just going to one up you in the ring this Sunday, I'm going to one up you right now by confessing my sin. Cassidy, I know that I am not what would be considered a good man in many circles. I'm selfish, petty, and a bit of a schemer. But I'm honest about it. I don't try to hide behind a facade of holiness, or of even caring what others think about me. I may not be the best of people, but I am most certainly one of the best wrestlers of this or any generation! And you know why? It's because of my sin. I'll tell you what my greatest sin is, Cassidy, I'll tell you flat out. My greatest sin is Lust! And not in a sexual way, mind you. The self control I showed by waiting until I got married to partake in intercourse is proof of this. Rather, my lustfullness is applied in the context of a lust for glory, a lust for power, greatness! I yearn to be the absolute best I can be, no matter what the circumstances! I sacrifice my body and soul to be the best, because I quite simply want it more than most people. I am obsessed with the idea of being the absolute greatest Overdrive Champion in the history of APW, and I won't stop at any lengths to prove it! If my record setting three reigns as champion isn't enough, then I yearn to make this title run the very best Overdrive Title run any Megastar has or will ever have!”
“My lust for power was so much that it lead me to overthrowing President Jeff's authority in APW, and seizing control as General Manager for the better part of seven months! My lust for glory propelled me into the semi-finals of the Extreme Tournament: Siberia! And my lust for greatness will not only help me in succeeding in my goal to go down as the greatest Overdrive Champion in the history of APW, but it will one day lead me to the promised land, when I claim the APW Heavyweight Championship as my own.”
“You already had your chance at the APW Heavyweight Championship, Criss Cassidy, and you showed that you didn't want it enough. And not to discount my Overdrive Championship, but if you can't muster up that kind of desire for the Heavyweight Title, what makes you think you can show the heart necessary to beat me for the Overdrive Title? You might lie to yourself, like you always do, and tell yourself you want the Overdrive Title more than you've ever wanted anything else in your life, Criss Cassidy, but do you really? Do you have the passion, the heart, the want to be champion to the point where nothing can stop you from claiming the Overdrive Championship for your very own this Sunday? I don't think you do, and if you believe you do, it's just as big a lie as the one you're telling yourself about being the 'Second Coming.' The bottom line is this, Criss Cassidy, come Survive and Conquer, you won't beat me. And it won't be just because of anything I do, it'll be because of what you don't do.”
“Cassidy, I implore of you before our match, please, take the time to be honest with yourself. Realize your short comings, and stop living a lie. Sure, it won't help you to be able to defeat me, but at the very least, it'll give you piece of mind. And even though I'm kind of in the middle of a falling out with God, I am in a better spot with Him than you are, Cassidy, because I know that he's not with me. I have no delusions of believing that He's on my side. But for all your loud prayers, for all the large crosses you wear, the fact is that He isn't with you either. When we meet this Sunday, we won't be meeting in one of your false houses of worship, we will be meeting inside a wrestling ring! When we meet in that ring, it'll be my skill versus your skill, and while you might need divine intervention to match up against me, you won't be getting it. All you will be getting is a cold hard dose of truth as I bring you crashing down to Earth, and prove once again why I am quite simply OUT OF THIS WORLD!”
Biggs smirks once more as the video fades to black, and the APW logo and copyright appears at the bottom of the screen.
Depeche Mode's “Spacewalker” plays as the words FIRST CONTACT flash across a starry background. The video switches to Biggs as he sits in front of a slot machine in the Luxor casino. He's dressed in a shirt and tie, with nice black slacks. He has the Overdrive Championship slung over his shoulder.

“Now Matt Ward versus the UK Kid on paper doesn't even look fair. One is the Link's little lap dog, and the other is undefeated so far in APW.

And not to discount my Overdrive Championship, but if you can't muster up that kind of desire for the Heavyweight Title, what makes you think you can show the heart necessary to beat me for the Overdrive Title? You might lie to yourself, like you always do, and tell yourself you want the Overdrive Title more than you've ever wanted anything else in your life, Criss Cassidy, but do you really? Do you have the passion, the heart, the want to be champion to the point where nothing can stop you from claiming the Overdrive Championship for your very own this Sunday? I don't think you do, and if you believe you do, it's just as big a lie as the one you're telling yourself about being the 'Second Coming.' The bottom line is this, Criss Cassidy, come Survive and Conquer, you won't beat me. And it won't be just because of anything I do, it'll be because of what you don't do.”
“Cassidy, I implore of you before our match, please, take the time to be honest with yourself. Realize your short comings, and stop living a lie. Sure, it won't help you to be able to defeat me, but at the very least, it'll give you piece of mind. And even though I'm kind of in the middle of a falling out with God, I am in a better spot with Him than you are, Cassidy, because I know that he's not with me. I have no delusions of believing that He's on my side. But for all your loud prayers, for all the large crosses you wear, the fact is that He isn't with you either. When we meet this Sunday, we won't be meeting in one of your false houses of worship, we will be meeting inside a wrestling ring! When we meet in that ring, it'll be my skill versus your skill, and while you might need divine intervention to match up against me, you won't be getting it. All you will be getting is a cold hard dose of truth as I bring you crashing down to Earth, and prove once again why I am quite simply OUT OF THIS WORLD!”
Biggs smirks once more as the video fades to black, and the APW logo and copyright appears at the bottom of the screen.
