A gentle misting rain falls on the dusky ground, as Carl Cage comes into view walking down an old cobble stoned path, his feet making short work with clicking steps. He is garbed in a black trench coat, opened to show a pair of Aramani stonewashed Jeans and a white Ben Sherman shirt. His eyes looked straight ahead, his eyes piercing into the night sky as he walks down the old street, past wooden houses and small grassy areas. There were few people around as people seem to have closed up their shops for the night, packing away their tents and taking their produce away. He continues to walk, down to the darker part of town. There, he reaches a corner. All that is there is a broken down house. He just shakes his head. Cage finally turns around looking into the camera with disgust. He tilts his head before shaking one last time before finally breaking his impending silence.
Cage: The hunger for success inside me will always burn. This business will never get enough of me and never tire watching me win match after match.. Despite the figures I'm getting paid, I don't do this just for the money but for myself as well. I do this because it makes me happy. I enjoy burning clowns week in and week out. Drowning the competition in their own shame. I live for competition and when I'm not competing, I'm beyond bored, it's like watching a Sabur promo; it's not something I enjoy doing. This is what I live for and it is all that keeps me going. Yet I still gotta deal with the usual jealous pricks who attempt to take me down. In APW and in this industry as a whole I'm hated on from quite a few fucking directions. They hate me because I'm greater than them. But, like the rest of them have you will all learn that hating me doesn't make me any less spectacular. I am still Carl "The Essence Of Egotism" Cage throughout all the jealousy. I will still burn you. Honestly I'm tired of this. I'm tired of seeing the likes of Sabur and half of the APW roster say the same shit every week. Can't you dig a little bit deeper? This is the opportunity of your lives and you're blowing it. You're throwing it away like yesterday's trash. And you guys and girls think you can beat me? Your tired lines have fallen on deaf ears. You're feeble attempts of making a name for yourselves have done nothing but make you look like a pathetic pieces of crap. This is your only chance this week Sabur. Your only chance to show you belong in a ring with me. But like every other opportunity you've been graced with...you will fall a little bit short. You know deep down that if you fail against me and my employee's your going back to the bottom of the ladder. Then you'll have to climb your way back to the top and it will be a long grueling journey. A journey you'll never be able to make your way through. You think glory and prestige awaits you? Let me tell you what awaits you Sabur. Pain. Suffering. And everything that goes with it. You’ve been put in my way and that's not a good place to be. Now you deal with the repercussions of that. You think you got any advantage? You better think again.
Cage: If you're stupid enough to believe that I'd allow you to gain the upper hand, that I'd allow you to catch me off guard then you're sadly mistaken. This is what I've been waiting for, a challenge and now that it's here. I'm not near as excited, I'm not impressed, as a matter of fact I'm disappointed. I thought you'd bring more of a challenge. I thought I'd actually have to work for this win but instead this victory will be like taking candy away from a baby. In this industry that's all you are Sabur... a sniveling little baby and I'll treat you as such. Because I know that you can't compete with an athlete of my caliber, I know that you aren't at my level, and that you're better off waiting in the dug out than stepping up to the plate. Don't get me wrong, you've made a lasting impression on this company, you helped to spark the fuse but that's where this story ends. You may have given a fight but in the end you will make a fool out of yourself and make easy work out of doing it. You aren't extraordinary, you aren't exciting, you're bland at best and that my friend, is reason enough for me to embarrass you in front of the world. I'm daring you to exhaust that arsenal of yours, the text books don't mean a god damn thing if you can't apply the knowledge and I'm waiting patiently for you to make a valid point, to prove me wrong because I don’t believe you can. Light the fire, give me a reason to come out swinging. You've been up and down this road, you've been wandering aimlessly looking for someone, looking for an equal. But what you've found, is a competitor that is superior to you in every way. You are inferior, Sabur. I'm not going to beat around the bush, I am going to tell you right now that you can't possibly comprehend how much shit you are in. Knee deep doesn't begin to explain, what you've gotten yourself into. I am God's way of telling you that you are better off working a nine-to-five, flipping burgers then attempting to make a name for yourself in a business that has Carl Cage. I'm here to show you the error of your ways of opening your mouth to the wrong person. And the consequences you pay when you do. You’ll make a grave mistake by getting in my way Sabur and in the end you might wind up paying with your career. I’ll give credit though, You were right about no upset… because no one will be upset when I take you out!!
Cage: You are forgetting that times change, that people change, that things change. The days of fun high flying and wrestling are over. A new craze has arisen from the ashes. Pointless mutilation, blood shed, it's all apart of the equation. Evolution is vital to growth, a progress that takes place with or without our consent. So before you try to reason, before you try to stress the subject, remember that it won't change a god damn thing. I am destined for greatness, from day one I've told myself that if I don't live up to the hype, then I don't deserve to live at all. Some people don't realize that this is my life, that this is all I have, and I won't let you or anybody else ruin this for me. I will walk out of this with the World Heavyweight Title and I'll walk out of and I will move on to bigger and better things leaving you in the dust. You don't have to like it. You do what ever you have to do to deal with it. Even if it means I have to break every bone in my body to do so. It's the only thing that matters, it's the only thing that ever mattered. No games Sabur. I don't have time for them. I have a point to prove and if that means shedding your blood all over the arena to prove it than I'm willing and ready to do just that. You decided to enter a world. What you didn't realize upon entering is nobody walks out. The only way out is if I allow you out and you'll be carried out. Beaten. Broken. Battered. A shell of your former self.
Cage: I have nothing to prove by beating you. Until you prove your worth here by continuing your success day in and day out...you're nothing to me. But this match is a stepping stone to get better and more challenging opponents...so I guess I'll have to walk all over you to get there. Now that I think of it, I feel naked without a title around my waist. That alone, is reason enough for me to cut every corner and to make every move count, to make every moment worth living for. This is my drug, this is my anti-drug, how ironic that something can fill each empty space, even when they are exact opposites. That's what makes me cling to this business, it's versatility. It's not one dimensional like you. At least in this line of work. No matter how vast the arsenal, no matter how many times you tell yourself you can, you won't. You won't because I won't allow you to. This victory is mine. I'm not one for trickery, for “mind games”, I'm straight forward and I'm guaranteeing you that by the time this is all said and done. You won't think so highly of yourself, you won't think that you are the beginning and the end, alpha and omega, because you're looking at the best this business will ever see, the best this company will ever see. You can make all the false promises and idle threats you like because at the end of the day...none of it matter. Whatever helps you sleep at night, right? I will make you bleed for me like I've made every other person in my path of destruction bleed for me. I'm a shark. Once I see your blood I will move in for the kill and there aint a damn thing you can do to stop me but watch, wait, and get devoured.
Cage: You may not know me entirely... but my entire career is littered with success. Success that you will could never comprehend because in a million years Sabur...you will never possess. I have more talent in my pinkie that you have flowing through your entire body. You think you belong in the spotlight? Congratulations you got it. But not on your own merit. Your in the spotlight because you'll be standing in the same ring as me until I put you out to pasture. You're a second rate jerk off and you always will be. You got your 15 minutes of fame but come Overdrive that all comes to an end. You will endure pain like you've never felt before. I'm tired of this...all of this. It's over. Done. Finished. You're defeat is inevitable. You're soon be on a downward spiral...courtesy of Carl Cage. Well, I'm going to tear you to shreds buddy. I'm going to pick you apart until there is nothing left of you. The time for talk is over. Now it's time for us to back up our words...and you can't do it, can you? It's time for you to follow through on whatever threats to plan on making this week. It's time for you to prove your worth...as if you ever had any. You're trash Sabur... and as such I'm going to dispose of you. Just days away till you're destruction. You can't hide from it any longer. And when it's all said and done I will prove once again why I am the best this business has to offer and why you are just a fantasy of yourself. All your hopes and dreams will fade when you crash and burn on Overdrive. And prove to the world you're all hype and no action. Because you see Sabur just like the ground I'm standing on and like half of the APW roster...you are beneath me!
Cage then turns his back to the camera walking off he then stops and turns around to the camera and says "The last thing your hear in our match is, your winner and new World Heavyweight Champion Carl Cage" he then turns back around. Cage then walks of into the distances as the camera then just fades to black
