Prologue:
So this is my outcome after being on top of this company. A match with some bitch who can't even spell her name right… Of course it isn’t what I may have wanted the moment I returned. My eyes were on the big prize and the Survive and Conquer match. However, when I did return I came with a skill that has been making quite a mark on APW lately. I am going to be involved in one of the biggest matches at Carnage has to offer this year. See, time and time again I realize something that in turn was only holding me back. I have developed one of the biggest egos in this place and honestly I have never earned all the credentials to deserve it. I mean, yeah… I won the International Title in EWC. That was a big deal. And being honored with the APW World Heavyweight Championship did a lot for my career. Still though, I want to win the APW Championship again. I’ve never actually been at the top of this pinnacle even when I was the champ. I need to work my way up. I finally realized it is me who is stuck at the middle of that ladder. I still believe I could compete, but to properly gain hype and become a worthy contender, I am going to have to proceed through the notions. Therefore, this match at Carnage could be one of the keys that I will need in my quest of unlocking that final door. It is the only championship aside from the Xtreme title that I have ever cared for that much. I mean… I am a consistent guy. I always go out there with something to prove with the way everyone has always doubted me. There is always a mission in my mind. And I respect myself for never losing that fire. I have had it ever since I stepped foot in an APW arena. In fact, it’s this fire that I possess that has leaded me to be a APW World Heavyweight Champion in the past. Those times are over now, though. I have finally reconciled and noticed that in order to become the best out there, I'm going to need to develop myself. The talent I have has already been there. Now that I have gained a bit of chemistry I really can be one of the most impacting wrestlers in the history. It’s like the two links on a chain that were never there. Now I'm here and have developed the chain into quite a nice piece of jewelry. The chips are all lying on the table now. The Retribution Killer is all in. Going up against Fyre Angel this week and Level One and Jamal Jackson is going to be the hard part…but when I put my goals together in my mind, I will in fact claim the APW World Heavyweight Championship as my own. I am going to revolutionize Fyre Angel this week. It will be simply phenomenal.]
[The scene opens up inside an Italian night club. John Green is standing inside dancing around with half closed eyes and a beer in his hand.]
Green: WOOOO!
[There is random chatter everywhere in the large club. John suddenly falls into a big Italian guy who gives him a stare but John just gets off of him and continues dancing. Suddenly bored, John stops and then puts his drink down on the bar. He walks over to the VIP section and ducks under a small railway. Suddenly a bodyguard walks in front of him as one of the men inside turns his head.]
Man: Can I help you?
Green: …Uhhhh maybe. Do you know where the bathroom is??
Man: Heh, down the hall to your left.
Green: Thank..uh..thanks.
[The man nods grinning and turns back to his guests. John walks through the bathroom door. Immediately he feels like he is about to throw up and runs to the toilet. Suddenly, his phone starts to vibrate. He empties himself out and then turns back over and sits on the ground. He pulls out the phone and brings it up to his ear.]
Green: Yeah?
Chris: Hey it’s Chris.
Green: Oh what’s up…
Chris: Nothing really… Just found out you're booked against Fyre Angel this week.
Green: Oh really…? That’s uh…that’s just awesome man.
Chris: Yeah. By the way, where are you?
Green: Went out to party at a club here in Italy.
Chris: Uh…nice, but you do know that you didn't win last week and you were jumped by Level One?
Green: Of course I know that, but I wil be in a match against Level One and Lynch at Carnage… I think that’s deserving of a party!
Chris: Haha true. Tell me where you’re at later.
Green: No problem.
[They each hang up the phone as Green pulls himself up from the stall. He walks back out onto the dance floor and then climbs up onto the bar.]
Green: Hello! I have a little announcement everyone!
[Everyone on the dance floor turns to him and the music cuts.]
John Green: Wow… Talk about pressure. Anyway HOW EXCITED ARE YOU ALL TO KNOW WE HAVE A FAMOUS WRESTLER HERE TONIGHT!!??
[A few members of the italion crowd get hyped up but most just stand dumbfounded seeing as to who is delivering the message
Green: YEAH! WOOO! AND HOW ABOUT ALL OF YOU NOT NOTICING IT WAS ME! YEAH! REAL NICE!
[Some laugh but others look confused.]
Green: THAT’S ALRIGHT THOUGH... LET’S JUST BE HAPPY I'm HERE! I EVEN GOT SOMEHTING READY TO SAY FOR ALL OF YOU TO UNDERSTAND…
[John looks confused for a moment as if remembering something to say.]
Green: YEAH CHECK THIS OUT… FOTTITI QUESTO NAZIONE.
[Everyone silences… All of them realize he just said fuck this country in Italian.]
Green: HAHA HAIL JOHN GREEN. WOOO! GO BACK TO YOUR PARTYING PEOPLE…!
[John then jumps down with a wide grin on his face. A guy grabs John’ old beer bottle and cracks it over John’s head. Security runs over and lifts John up as he hangs limp over the large man’s broad shoulders. Dazed, he looks back up at the guy who hit him.]
Green: What?? You wanna go?? I would—
[John’s head goes limp along with the rest of his body. The security guard drops him in a closet in the back and shuts the door. It’s not too long before John sits back up. He looks around frantically.]
Green: Oh my god… The movie was true. What have I done!? THEY’RE GONNA RIP MY EYEBALLS OUT AND PRY MY FINGERNAILS OFF AND—
[Once again the vibrate of his phone goes off. He picks it up.]
Green: FUCK YOU! I’M NOT GOING ANYWHERE UNTIL THE DAY BEFORE MONDAY!
[He hangs up the phone and drops it to the ground. Peering around anxiously he waits for some deep voice to come over urging him to play a game…He falls back to the ground almost about to let a tear run down his cheek before he remembers what was going on. He picks up the phone. It was Chris.]
Green: Oh… Thank god.
[He then grabs the phone but has no reception in the room to make a call. He walks over to the door and opens it up easily.]
Green: Hmm…
[He hears the blaring music and follows back into the dance floor. He sees the guy who hit him and walks up to him. He pulls his arm back ready to throw a punch when the same security member walks by and grabs him. He puts him in a sleeper like hold and drags him to the front and throws him out onto the pavement. Once again John dozes off.]
[He wakes back up staring at the black interior of a car seat. He springs up once again frantically looking around and sees a guy driving in the front seat. He throws a punch at him but misses and the man turns around somewhat shocked.]
Green: Chris? Shit…
Chris: What the fuck is wrong with you tonight?
Green: Long story… Ever see Hostel?
[Chris turns his head back towards the road and flashes a grin.
John simply leans his head back and closes his eyes.]
Chris: Whatever you got into, you look beat.
Green: Yeah, was a pretty long night.
Chris: You sounded wasted when I called you up…
Green: Nah, I was just buzzed. Really didn’t even drink that much.
Chris: Alright, well tomorrow you got to head into Omaha.
Green: Overdrive is in Sioux Falls…
Chris: Yeah I got booked for a show at WEW though.
Green: Haha, oh well… I've already got enough momentum as it is but if you keep adding on to it just increases my chances man. I guess I’ll take the trip too…
Chris: Alright since we’re in the same hotel I’ll just come by in the morning. We’re already back anyway.
[The car pulls into the hotel’s parking lot and they find a spot. The two of them get out.]
Chris: Shit man, is your car still back at the place?
Green: Haha no I didn’t bring my car along with me…Just walked there.
Chris: Oh alright, I’ll talk to you tomorrow then.
Green: Will do.
[After entering the lobby the two of them slap hands and split up, heading into different directions. John walks into his suite and immediately throws off his shirt and gets into bed. He shuts off the lamp on the counter next to him and goes to sleep.]
[The scene opens up the next morning in the airport terminal. Chris and John sit together waiting for the plane. A few people sit on the seats across from them but for the most part the section is quite clear. It is obvious the plane is not ready for boarding yet.]
Chris: Damn man… I know you're getting so pumped for this every week you here the name. Carnage… one of the biggest events of the year.
Green: Yeah it’s gonna be my night. I’m tired of hearing about all these wrestlers… Link, Jason Rotce, BDC… Every one of them doesn’t deserve as much attention as I do.
Chris: Don’t worry bro; it’s not going to last much longer. You're two days away from proving to the whole world that you mean business when you take out Fyre Angel. Anyway, the plane’s gonna be ready in a bit so I’ll go take a bathroom break. Be right back…
[John just nods. Chris walks off and as he does so John sees the opportune time to cut his promo. He pulls out his camcorder from the small duffle bag in front of him and sets it down on a small counter next to his seat. Gently lifting his voice due to the few people across the way from him, he clicks the button and begins…]
Green: Let’s start things off here and just get right to business… Last week on Overdrive I definitely made a statement. However, this came with a price. Although I came out firing with ruthless aggression at Lynch, a quick turn from the action gave Level One the easy lane to jumpingville. However, you see… That match wasn’t about a win or a loss. If it was, you would have seen the same usual me going about the match with technicality and precision. Fyre Angel is a huge up and coming star I here. Whether it’s her ability to slip in and out of the right spots at the right time or not, she clearly can notch a victory. When I go out there, my goal in mind is to show the world exactly what a guy like me could do to a rookie talent. You don’t have to look any farther than this match to see that the way I handle people in the ring has become among those of the elite. I’m constantly considered lesser of the highest class, but it’s time to start realizing I’m right there next to them. So before anyone questions my lack of focus, watch this weeks edition of Overdrive, and watch as I completely decimate Fyre Angel.. Despite not getting the win last week, I did accomplish my goal. So in no way was my current momentum tainted or tarnished. If anything, it became greater.
Green: While on the topic of Fyre Angel, let me explain to everyone the chances of her winning the match… In three words…slim to none. Fyre Angel can outsmart me. You could see it as that. This match will be different from last week. Face it people, when we’re talking about Fyre Angel it’s either Fyre Angel we are either talking about how sucky she is or when she's going to quit. I put Lynch onto a stretcher at New Years Retribution, and Fyre Angel won't be far from getting there this week.
Green: Considering Fyre Angel has already been getting her ass kicked since New Years Retribution, it says a lot about how motivated she is. If you ask me, Jeff and Max put her in simply in order to fill up space. I mean, I do hold Angel in somewhat of a high regard. In her prime, she is truly one of the best. It just kills me to see her continuously returning only to tarnish her own name time and time again.
Green: Poor Fyre. She is always popping her head in and out of the business that goes on within the walls of APW. Well that just makes it a crap shoot then doesn’t it? Sadly, it has no effect at all. I have to say that she sucks equally just as much as any other member of the APW roster who hasn't had the balls to speak to me the right way. An aspect of surprise fails horribly being she has the same in ring tactics as the next one. They’re like the little sister of APW. You would get rid of them if you could, but you know no matter what they’re always going to be here. I’ve just learned to cope with it. If anything needs to be noted about the way they fight, let’s just say they’re pathetic cheaters since they need a win. I mean, just look at what Level One had to do to beat me! He couldn’t just let me get the glory… What a shame.
John Green: To make this promo short, I am going to destroy Fyre Angel Monday night. And she will never know what had hit her. Now let me turn to an individual who has addressed due to the fact that I eliminated his fat ass in the Survive and Conquer match. BDC don't be alittle whiney little bitch cause you couldn't handle the heat of the match. I was there to do the same thing you were there to do. To win. We had the same goal in the match. So don't bitch and complain and say I'm in your little Fuck you up list. You see BDC in the match I proved why I am the Retribution Killer when I killed Retribution Inc.s' chance to become World Champion. So Chris if you want to fuck with a true wrestler than go ahead. I'll be right in that arena waiting for your big ass. It seems everyone wants to prove they are better than me by trying to beat me.
John Green: In spite of all this though, I will defeat my opponent this week. After I do I'll defeat Level One and Lynch at Carnage. It’s my time to finally get some gold back around my waist. One way or another, I’ll make sure it happens as well…
