The scene comes to life as we are in the Staples Center, Los Angeles, California. The arena is being setup for the upcoming APW event, Shockwave. Thousands of fans are suppose to be here for this one night coming up. Banners are showed hanging from the ceilings, showing matches that are suppose to happen at Shockwave. The camera looks up and see’s one particular banner. The face of Michael Lively, wearing his North American Championship and on the far side of the banner. We see the number one contender for the North American Championship, Shane Borderland. As the camera looks down, Shane Borderland is standing in front of the camera, followed by his friends, Eric Jackson, and Big Heavy. Shane cocks an eyebrow and looks back up to the banner slowly.
.:Shane Borderland:.
Looks nice up there doesnt it. See this is the match i have been wanting for a long time now. Just really never got the chance. Or every time i did get a chance or close to it, someone screwed me over. But now, oh no. Its just me and the supposedly great one. See this time, there will be no interferences. So i will have you all to myself this time Lively. Plus you see these boys behind me? They are my reassurance that nothing is going to happen. So your ass is coming off that pedestal at Shockwave. I know that you think you are the greatest thing to come into the APW, but Lively. Really man, since you have finally gotten that title, you have been on cloud nine and its time for your ass to be kicked back into reality.
Laughter comes from behind Borderland. The camera slowly moves to the left to where we can see a little behind Borderland. Jackson and Heavy and smiling and showing a little humor themselves.
.:Shane Borderland:.
To me Lively you are nothing but a waste of gods green talent. I wouldnt piss on fire to put you out, i wouldnt give you air if you was stuck in a jug, you are worthless Lively. Yes you might have become the North American Champion, but how long did it take you? You came in an acted like you was going to take over, and the sad part is. You couldnt even beat a dumbass, retarded punk. Yes, im referring to myself, because if im not mistaken, thats what you called me. If you remember correctly, i did beat you like two times right in a row, so technically you have beaten me only once. And you want to talk about which one is the better contestant. You might have been in the game way before me Lively, but nothing stands in a mans way when he is on a mission. But you wouldnt know anything about that. your still a little kid in the mind yourself, want to know how i know? For one thing, you still act like your in high school. Yea so what, sometimes i have a bit of a grammar problem, but from some godly reason.
You cannot let that go for nothing. Its like the only memory of me in your head. Every time we get around each other, thats all i hear. Well lets take a trip down memory lane, shall we? This grammar problem didnt stop me from kicking that ass two times did it? No, i stomped your ass so hard that god felt it. I surprised myself what that win because i thought i did something great. But now i see just a waste of space, a no good, lucky for nothing son of a bitch. Here lately you have been holding up to your title, being a APW Hall of Famer. But when you first came in, i thought that you might have been in a Hall of Shamer. You didnt do a damn thing to surprise anyone or nothing. All you did was kept getting put into a match with a man that you couldnt beat to save your life, a man that you call retarded. ME! But now you get lucky and when the title and think that you are the king of Meltdown. Well let me let you in on a little secret there Lively, the king always gets assassinated and your number one on my list. This kingdom will become mine at Shockwave and there is nothing anyone can do about it.
Shane turns and walks away from the camera, as so does his friends, Jackson and Heavy. The camera watches the men as they walk through the arena of the Staples Center as the scene starts slowly fading away.
Moments later the scene is pitch black, we can still hear movement and talking in the background. The voices seem very familiar. As the scene slowly fades in we see Shane Borderland, Eric Jackson, and Big Heavy sitting around a table in Borderland’s locker room, playing cards. Each of the men have change sitting on the table next to them. On the other side of them are long neck bottles of Budweiser. Shane throws his hand of cards on the table and a big grin comes across his face.
.:Shane Borderland:.
Read it and weep boys.
Eric and Big Heavy slam their cards on the table.
.:Eric Jackson:.
How in the hell Shane. Three times in a row.
.:Big Heavy:.
Lucky, thats all.
Shane rakes the change from the center of the table to where he is sitting.
.:Shane Borderland:.
Its not luck Heavy, its talent. Im feeling lucky tonight.
.:Big Heavy:.
You going to show this talent that your speaking of to Lively?
Shane’s face of excitement quickly turns to a face of determination.
.:Shane Borderland:.
Lively... This guy just cant seem to get enough of me. First off, he comes back preparing to to pick up where he left off. What he didnt know was that i returned also and his dreams went down the shit pipe.
.:Eric Jackson:.
That was like 2 months ago Shane. Now he is in his groove and he has been dominating since. Lively is not a pushover, how do you think he become champion?
Shane’s face is so red you can light a match off of it.
.:Shane Borderland:.
You think i dont know that Eric? I know Lively has been on a roll and i have been in a slum. I know he is champion and he got that way by being the best man. Just because he is finally living up to his word and he walks in Shockwave as the champion, doesnt mean he is leaving that way. I have had enough of this pile of trash that its not even funny. First, it was kind of good. I thought to myself, damn i must be damn good to take out a APW Hall of Famer. Now i know that it was nothing more than me taking out a newbie. The only thing that he has done to prove his excellence to me is win that title, but guess what. I got screwed out of that, so this time the odds are looking slim for him.
.:Eric Jackson:.
Just make sure you on your A game for this match Shane. This is the shot that you have been looking for, so dont blow it.
.:Big Heavy:.
Shane knows what he needs to do Eric. He knows that its time to nut up or shut up. Lively has been picking away at Shane for awhile now and its time for Shane to shut this clown up.
.:Shane Borderland:.
The thing is, Lively still talks about me like i have never won a championship, never did anything worthy of proving myself, never made a name for myself, nothing like that. If i do recall i was one half of the tag team champions, got the tag team champion of the year 2011 award, place second place in the Test for the Best tourney last year, might i need to mention that i was only in APW for two weeks. Plus everyone that has heard anything about the APW, knows of me. So that tells me that this pathetic creature doesnt know a damn thing. What he needs to do is get out of the past and start worrying about the future. He thinks that he can actually try and teach me something with his skills and progression he has made. Why should i learn from a washed up dead beat like yourself Lively? For a man like you, being a legend and all, this championship doesnt mean a damn thing to you. You have done what most people havent done, am i correct? But still you try your heart out to keep me away from this title. Why is that Lively? You scared of seeing me be the dominant one over the Jesus one?
You scared of losing that title, because you know yourself that its the only thing that you have done since you have returned to show why you are a legend? Or is it, your just plain out scared of the Bad Boy? I have came to a conclusion and i say its all damn three of those. I think its time for you to go back in the shadows and work your way up like you had to do when you first stepped foot into a APW ring, so you can relearn what its all about. Its easy to come back with a name like you and get pushed into being a champion, but can you climb all the way from the bottom and rise to the top again? I have Lively. I have been below the dirts surface, but i manage to pick up my belongings and travel my ass straight back up on the very top peak of the mountain. Thats where it leads us today. Like you said, i have managed to work my way back up and got a shot against you for that title. Its called determination, look it up. But i guess since your so smart you dont need to right? Well come this Shockwave, the so called Jesus will suffer a defeat at the hands of the Bad Boy.
.:Big Heavy:.
Shane, dont let this freak get under your skin. I havent been back long, but i have already figured Lively out. He is like a snake in the grass. He likes to stalk, toy with his opponent, get them shook up, then he goes in for the kill. Take his ass out, quick!
.:Shane Borderland:.
Lively likes toying with people because he thinks he is so damn good. But i have yet to see anything surprising from him. He thinks i dont deserve this shot, tell me Lively. Is there anyone else on the roster that can hang with a great such as yourself? Im the only guy that has beaten your ass twice and walked without a scratch. You get lucky in one match and defeat me, then become champion. You think that everything is just going to fall in your lap just because of your title in the APW? You should know your damn self that its easy to get a reputation, but its hard as hell to retain it. So why havent you did your job Lively? The only thing i see for you is being the biggest and loudest asshole APW has to offer. You talk of royalty, you walk with attitude, but when its time for the shit to hit the fan, you flake like a bowl of shreaded wheat my friend. You seem to think that this match is going to be a easy victory for you, but the way i look at it. This match is going to teach you a lesson in retribution. Im so sick of you prancing around, acting like you can never be beat. Well i have proven that and come Shockwave, the point will be taken once again. Since i have comeback i have worked my ass off to get where i am now. Yes, i have had my ups and downs, but to me that shows other superstars that even the great ones fail. Just like your going to fail at Shockwave. You talk about you teaching other people about life in the wrestling industry. What in the hell is there to learn from you? How to be a prick and get a luck break?
If they want to good teacher, i will let them listen to a man that has made a damn good name for himself in this business, me! Not some so called legend that use to be a damn good wrestler. Notice that i said use to be. No doubt in my mind that you had it in you Lively. Now days, things have changed. You might still be the same asshole your were before, i dont know. But i can tell you one thing, that precious title of yours will change hands at Shockwave. Like i said before, you didnt do a damn thing to deserve that title shot you got. You got put in a match, just like i did, and you got a lucky break. Now its like you think, you have battled with the best to get to where you are now. Since when does Jesus have to fight for anything Lively? I always thought, whatever Jesus wants, he takes. No arguing about it, no struggling, but thats all i have seen from you. You bitch and moan and struggle to get where you are today. Me? I have won and lost, i have maintained a steady ritual around here, but for you. All you can do is try and make fun of people, but the thing is, you dont realize that all your doing is digging a grave for yourself. It might seem like fun and games to you Lively, but this is my life, my career. So everything that i have worked hard for, put my existence on the line for, it will all come out at Shockwave and we will see who the true worthy warrior is. You want to talk about dominance? Well after im done with you, you will know the true definition of dominance.
.:Eric Jackson:.
Well Shane, the moment of truth is about to come. We will finally see which of the two is better, you or Lively. Maybe once and for all you can shut this loud mouth piece of shit up.
.:Shane Borderland:.
The thing is, he has pushed me to the limit to where i dont even care about anything else but beating the life out of him. I want to see if he is a god or a human being. He seems to think that his greatness is the key to success. Well i got a key also, and its under a size eleven boot. Lively, i will give it to you. You have pushed me farther than anyone has before. You got balls my friend, but the thing is im the vital idol and there is nothing i wont do just to see your ass scream with terror. Im all in this match, just like i am going to be with this deck of cards.
Eric shuffles a hand for them to play. As he is dealing them out, Shane shoves all of his change in the middle of the table.
.:Shane Borderland:.
See Lively, you have got one thing to lose in this match, and thats the North American Championship, me on the other hand. I have nothing to lose but a match. So you are going to be damn careful and make sure that doesnt happen, while i will be a mad man at the end of his rope. Your right when you said that this match will forever go down in history as one of the best matches ever to be on a Shockwave event. I will show everyone that Jesus loses from time to time and it doesnt matter what you do at the end of the day. Because you will still be in the shadows of your former self. Nothing you can do is going to stop me in this match. I have yet to proven my own stability in the APW, and what a better way then taking out an APW legend, a Hall of Famer, Everyone’s Jesus, Michael Lively.
All the cards have been dealt to play, Jackson shoves his change into the center of the table. Borderland and Jackson look over at Heavy, noticing he doesnt have any more change to put in the pot. Both of them smile as they look down at there cards, but are suddenly interrupted by a noise. They look up and see a can of spray cheese, laying on its side on top of the change. They look at Heavy with a smirk on their faces. They all slam down their hands of cards, again Borderland coming out on top.
.:Shane Borderland:.
See Lively, winners are not born. They are made!
As the scene slowly fades to black, Jackson and Heavy are shaking their heads, while Shane kicks back in his chair, holding a can of spray cheese over his mouth, letting the cheese ooze from the bottle.
.:Shane Borderland:.
Looks nice up there doesnt it. See this is the match i have been wanting for a long time now. Just really never got the chance. Or every time i did get a chance or close to it, someone screwed me over. But now, oh no. Its just me and the supposedly great one. See this time, there will be no interferences.

I know that you think you are the greatest thing to come into the APW, but Lively. Really man, since you have finally gotten that title, you have been on cloud nine and its time for your ass to be kicked back into reality.
Laughter comes from behind Borderland. The camera slowly moves to the left to where we can see a little behind Borderland. Jackson and Heavy and smiling and showing a little humor themselves.
