The scene opens up in the Source’s Chambers, where Nathaniel Havok stands with Cole Turner. Somewhat in a panic, Nathaniel rubs his forehead, in deep thought as we listen in…
Turner: Come on, Nathaniel! We need to make a decision, and we need to do it now!
Havok: I don’t know what to do, Cole! It’s just not that easy!
Turner: No, it IS that easy! You’re going to have to pick one or the other.
Havok: You can’t stand there and demand something like that of me! It’s completely unfair! How am I supposed to choose between the two?
The cameras pan out to see Nathaniel and Cole standing in front of a table. On the table are three different pairs of wrestling trunks and boots. Unable to contain himself any longer, Nathaniel bursts into laughter, as Cole shortly follows suit.
Havok: Okay, seriously... This guy couldn’t even beat Dan White! We both know that Dan White couldn’t touch A.C. Smith!
Turner: Where are you going with this?
Havok: It’s simple. I went to Duvall, and I requested this match. By beating Legion, that’s one of the few contenders out of my way!
Turner: Okay? Then, who’s left?
Havok: Dan White, Shadow, maybe a few stragglers. But who cares? None of these guys could touch me! I’m APW Elite, Action Packed Wrestling ROYALTY! Nathaniel Havok, he IS the APW Xtreme Championship. I never lost that belt; I should already be the number one contender.
Turner: Why didn’t you just ask Duvall for a title match?
Havok: Where’s the honor in that? By beating the absolute piss out of Legion, by getting past the rest of the contenders, no one can claim foul play… No pun intended.
All of the sudden, the frame freezes. Well, everything but Nathaniel does, anyways. Breaking the “fourth wall”, Nathaniel looks into the camera.
Havok: There’s a shout out for you, J-Kash!
Cole and the rest of the frame unfreezes, and things continue as usual.
Havok: I’m done with “political leverage”, and everything that comes along with it. I have no need to politick my way to the top of the Xtreme Championship standings, because it’s a title that I’ve owned and previously made prestigious. That title means what it means today, because of me! I made it that way, Cole! I have no need to politick my way back to the Xtreme Championship, and I’m not going to do it! For over a year now, that title has belonged to ME! No matter whose possession it’s been in, that Xtreme Championship has still been mine!
Turner: But why? I mean… Why the Xtreme Championship again? Why not go after Callahan? Why not become a two time World Heavyweight Champion?
Havok: There is a time and a place for everything, Cole. Believe me, sooner than later, I will become the World Heavyweight Champion once again. But for now, I’ve got another goal in mind. And that goal revolves around MY APW Xtreme Championship!
Turner: And what goal do you have in mind?
Nathaniel thinks about it momentarily, before deciding not to speak of his goal.
Havok: The goal for this point in time is to get past Legion. Like I told you, I asked for this match, and I did it for a reason. A.C. Smith rubbed me the wrong way last Overdrive, acting like I pose absolutely no threat to his… MY Xtreme Championship.
Turner: You knew he was going to! What kind of champion would he be, if he felt like anybody posed a threat to him? He’s confident; you can’t hold that against him!
Havok: Dare you defend him? I am NOT the kind of competitor that you just dismiss as “yet another one of the contenders”! I am Nathaniel Havok! I’m the Enforcer of Sorrow! Furthermore, Cole… I’m the God damned Source of all Evil! On any given night, in any given town, at any given event… Nathaniel Havok can take over, and completely change the scheme! A legend once said “Just when you think you have all the answers, I change the questions”, and that’s exactly what I have done my entire career! Guys like Legion, guys like A.C. Smith, they have a God complex. A complex that they created in their heads, without ever earning the right to do so! Me? I’ve earned that right, because of who I am, and what I’ve done in this business! When you say Nathaniel Havok, you think back to the chaos that I’ve created! You think back to the extremist mentality that I’ve brought to professional wrestling! And in Action Packed Wrestling… I have…
Into the room shimmers a demon, much to the displeasure of the Source. He bows his head in a show of respect, before looking at Nathaniel with a look of desperation.
Demon: My liege, we’ve been attacked. Demon central has been taken over.
Nathaniel looks at Cole and nods his head, to which Cole responds by shimmering out of the room. Nathaniel brings the demon in close. Now head-to-head, Nathaniel expresses his gratitude to his loyal subject.
Havok: Thank you, for your loyalty.
Nathaniel’s eyes flash a color of fire, and the demon explodes in front of him. Nathaniel cares not about the fact that he just vanquished one of his own demons. He now focuses on the camera in front of him.
Havok: A great plan starts with its creator. And while my plans on Meltdown might have not gone according to plan in the beginning, everything worked out in the end. Just like this plan, it’s going to work out in the end for everybody! You see, I made the conscious decision to go back to my Overdrive roots, to reclaim a title that Nathaniel Havok never lost. And that all starts with you, Legion. I know you’re probably thinking to yourself “why me”, right? Why you? Why of everybody on the Overdrive roster, did Nathaniel Havok pick you to redebut against? It’s simple, Legion… I picked you, because not only are you the weakest link, but you’re the start to a means of an end!
Do you honestly think that you stand a chance against the Enforcer of Sorrow? After everything that I've done to make my triumphant return to the Overdrive brand, do you really think that you're going to be able to outlast me, in my redebut on the show? Check the record books, Legion! For a very long time, Nathaniel Havok ran Thursday Night Overdrive! Not an episode went by, that Nathaniel Havok wasn't doing something outrageous! Why? Because I know controversy! I know how to make an impact! Nathaniel Havok knows how to carry a show on his shoulders!
Now, I want you to do me a favor. I want you to take a good look in the mirror. Look at yourself, and ask... "Could I carry Overdrive?" "Could I put Action Packed Wrestling on my shoulders, and take a run at it?"... People thought that Nathaniel Havok was unable to carrying a show; they thought that carrying APW was something that I couldn't do! I knew better, and what did I do about it? I FORCED the hand of Hurricane Jeff, the president of Action Packed Wrestling! I went into Christmas Chaos, I took his Xtreme Championship, and I took his World Heavyweight Championship! Not to mention the fact that I beat him that night, too!
Legion, you couldn't do anything like that! Truth be told, you probably couldn't even make it out of match number one with a victory, let alone win three matches in one night! That’s why I’ve chosen you, Legion! I’m on the same exact crusade I was on when I was wrestling for Meltdown! But this time, it’s just a little more personal! Why? Because Overdrive is my baby! Overdrive for the longest time, was the show that Nathaniel Havok made famous! And I’ll be damned if “wrestlers”… And I use that term for you VERY loosely… are going to stink up the joint, like you know how to do so well! Legion, to me, it’s about the CLASS of the Xtreme division! And when I say “class”, I mean the dignity and honor to that title, that you once fought to obtain! But when I’m finished, you’ll do what you should have done from the very beginning. Tuck your tail between your legs, and run as far away from APW as you can! Because when Nathaniel Havok…
Cole shimmers back into the room with a smirk on his face.
Havok: I take it that you’ve got good news…
Turner: My lord, everything at Demon Central, is indeed going accordingly to plan.
Havok: That’s what I like to hear…
The scene fades to black.
