“To achieve immortality, you must be willing to die...”
-Unknown
The scene opens up on a beautiful sunset overlooking the beach of Lahaina, HI. A gentle breeze hitting the terrain makes the palm trees sway back and forth as if they were dancing. There stands Reaver, sitting in a crouched position and staring at the waves crashing on the sandy beach. Behind him is the Arena, the site of the biggest match of his career; or at least in his mind it is. He sits there content with his actions and satisfied with his convictions.
He stands with a bag in his hand and grins, knowing what's about to happen not just on this evening but the near future. It's been a long time coming. He felt as if his career has finally come full circle, that his hard work for APW has finally come to fruition. Still, there was a war to be won and although battle after battle have been fought to make it to this point, he feels that it's his time to finish things......once and for all.
Knuckles: I told you Raab. I told you didn't I? It was foretold back in January that this would happen. Surprised? Or are you more concerned why Reaver isn't here to rub it in your face; that we were able to take control of Asylum out of the hands of a pathetic tyrant.
? ? ?: Senior Knuckles, Que' es Senior Reaver anyways?
Knuckles: I have him taking a good hard nap. I want him to be fully rested for Asylum this weekend. Or shall I say REAVER-MANIA!?
Knuckles chuckles to himself in multiple voices which confuses the cameraman. He continues filming because he knows he needs the paycheck regardless of how awkward Knuckles/Reaver/? ? ? may seem.
Knuckles: I stand here reminiscing about the past three and a half or so years and understand what must be done. In essence Stefan, I should be thanking you. You made me realize who I really am and what I needed to do to finally become a champion. Admittedly, I never thought I'd ever see YOU as a champion; let alone the man running the most violent and successful brand of APW. You proved the masses wrong Raab and that alone is commendable. For eight long months, you managed to get under the skin of all the right people and wormed your way into position to take the top spot away from the General Manager himself. As creepy and vile as I am, I never could have done what you did. I applaud you.
You took the doubts of all the haters and disbelievers and managed to cram it down their very throats with every show since you took the reigns. You proved that hard work DOES pay off in the end. I myself can't even deny the fact that you earned the right to hold the Suicidal Championship. You beat Evans fairly and for that I say congratulations.
Now look at you.
You stood proud and eager to face the world head on and found yourself going toe to toe with REAL competition. This was when you wrote a check that your foreign ass couldn't cash. You picked a fight with me, with us. You thought that you were bigger than you really were. You bought the hype and drank your own kool-aid. Even though you made a believer out of some, the one thing you forgot to do Stefan, was obtain skill. You had the world in the palm of your hands and you pissed it away because you got greedy. Sounds like every politician the United States has ever had HA!!
Knuckles pulls out an old relic he himself created one year ago around this time. A symbol of his struggle towards his current situation, the Dark Match Championship.
Knuckles: Remember this Raab? The Dark Match Championship. A belt that was to be defended 24/7 under extreme rules with pinfalls being the only way for this to change hands. This belt was a creation of mine as a way of escape I suppose? It was a way to make myself feel better for not receiving the opportunities I felt I deserved. All the sacrifices I made, the champions I've beaten. Just last year, I beat Chris Strike not once but twice in a row. That man was, is a legend in this business and was the current Suicidal Champion at that particular time. The Dark Match Championship was my way of cramming it down the throats of anybody who looked at me like trash.
Much like you did Stefan. Now here we are almost one full calender year later fighting over the same thing. And to think, you renamed it the “Germacidal Championship?” As if Germany cares if you killed yourself or not? The SUICIDAL Championship......has more meaning now then ever doesn't it Raab? It represents a man's desires to be a champion. How far anybody would be willing to go to achieve the champion status. How far are YOU willing to go Raab? I bet you weren't willing to go that far which was WHY you renamed it in the first place. This belt right here in my hands Stefan? This belt was fought over by more people than you could have ever thought. AND IT'S CURSED OF ALL THINGS!!
Supposedly Kash got a gypsy curse put on it cuz' he couldn't stop flirting with the ladies. His tiff with Kaylyn is proof of that. Wonder how I got it back? Well it was said that whomever was pinned would become the new Dark Match Champion. It's a jumbled mess I understand but after I retired Jake Titan, it managed to show up in my locker room again. So as the 11 time Dark Match Champion, I can honestly say that whatever curse that USED to be on this belt, seems to have been removed. I think a lot of it had to do with how I felt about the division itself as a whole. Just like you Raab, I had a lot of demons I had to face, a lot WE had to face. It took a whole year since, but it's finally time to let it go.....
Knuckles takes one final look at the Dark Match Championship. The memories of his fights floated around in his head. The losses to Mr. Dangerous, the mischievous antics of that came about from being this champion, the cry for help he needed. He felt as though everything that's happened to him because of this belt helped bring him here to this very moment. He takes a good spin and HURLS it over towards the ocean and into the sunset. The light glaring off of it as it disappears out of sight, never to return. (or will it?)
Reaver: MY BELT!!
Awakened by the motion of Knuckles (since it IS his body) seemed to wake up Reaver who was resting up for the big fight.
Knuckles: You're belt?
Reaver: Yes, MY belt! I'm the one who fought for it over and over.
? ? ?: Perhaps Senior Reaver is correct but please understand WHY Senior Knuckles did what he did.
Reaver: And I suppose YOU'RE the voice of reason you taco salad eating mother fffuuuu....
Knuckles: Cool it guys! We still have a lot of work to deal with. Sorry Reaver but it was necessary to move forward.
He can feel himself glaring at himself from the inside.
Reaver: It's a good thing I packed a new belt in the bottom of that bag eh Knucklehead? HEHEHAHAHAHA!
Knuckles: What!?
Knuckles rummages through the bag and pulls out this....
Knuckles looks confused as Reaver laughs hysterically. Reaver makes Knuckles put it on and TOTALLY making him feel like a fool.
Knuckles: I feel like a damn tool.....
Reaver: Give it a chance. It worked for Captain “N” The Game Master.
Knuckles: You realize that was a cartoon show right?
Reaver: Oh C'mon! You'll need it.
Knuckles: For what? Am I gonna' make Raab LAUGH to death? Is that the big plan to become the new Suicidal Champion?
Reaver: NO! But I suppose that could work too HEHEHEHAHAHA! Now that it's on, press up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, B then A!
Knuckles: Little hard to do that upside down dick! What's that supposed to do?
Reaver: Make me laugh! HEHEHEHAHAHAHA! It's the Konami code asshole! Give yourself 30 plus lives and kick Raabs ass!
Knuckles: Grrreeeaaaatttt.....and I suppose you expect me to shoot him with the Nintendo gun too huh?
Reaver: Um.....actually......
Knuckles: You didn't!
Knuckles digs deeper in the bag and pulls out the original Nintendo gun with the cord cut off.
Reaver: “A man without a plan is not a man”-Friedrich Nietzsche. This just happens to be OUR plan HEHEHEHAHAHA! IT'S PERFECT AND FOOL PROOF!
Knuckles: * shaking his head at himself * The irony of quoting a German TO a German. Why don't I just pull off a limit breaker too while I'm at it? Or maybe I can summon Odin or Ragnorok to slice him up or blow him out of the arena.....
Reaver: See, now you just sound like a total nerd HEHEHEHEHAHAHA!
Knuckles keeps his head still as he glares over at the camera at the irony of that last comment.
? ? ?: You have to admit Senior' it WAS pretty funny.
Knuckles: Can I finally finish this shoot? Or do you wanna' keep interupting progress?
Reaver: Why can't I finish it?
Knucles: I need YOU to stay focused and rested for this weekend. I'll finish this and you just kick back.
Reaver: UGH! Fine.....
Reaver seemingly is gone as Knuckles continues.
Knuckles: Where was I?

I am now ready to give you my undivided attention Raab. You hold something near and dear to me. The one thing I've been coveting since the very day I stepped foot into APW all those years ago. Take a step back Stefan. Look at what's been accomplished in the past year. Let's start with how I beat YOU. A steel chair to the temple dropped you faster than a hooker going down for a blowjob. You didn't let it get you down, cuz' I already did that for you HA!
You managed to screw up that tag team you had when “FELLA” became all the rage. The one chance you had for greatness and you pissed it away. Seems to be the running theme in your career Raab. You somehow stole a win from Jeff, a man who hasn't wrestled in what? Five years? You then followed that up with a win over Reginald who has NEVER wrestled. Way to prey on the weak Stef'. Then you FINALLY get competition put in front of you and you needed the help of the Undisputed Champ to steal the win.
What happened when you were finally forced to stand like a man on your own Raab? You put down a good fight sure. But when push came to shove, you were too busy staring at Jason Kash's genitals than to fight me. I'm surprised you didn't go blind trying to find that thing with a magnifying glass. HA HA! Jason! Twice in a row now we faced one on one and twice in a row I didn't even need to “finish” you off. I took away from you the very thing that you've been taking away from everybody else on Asylum, their hope.
Reaver” * coughs * Excuse me!?
Knuckles: I'm sorry, what REAVER took away from you.
Reaver: HEHEHEHAHAHA! Thank You!
Knuckles: We gave them their hope back Raab. We gave the power you spent so much time abusing BACK to the people. What will you do this time when the very last thing you have left to lose is on the line? Will you come out of the corner swinging? Or will you drop down in fetal position and wimper like the bitch you really are? I'd like to think that ever since I beat you last year, you've become progressively better. I have a tendency to do that with everybody around me. People put in front of me, win or lose, end up becoming champion. Well now that you ARE a champion, how will you defend the life force that drives me to become stronger? Will you sacrifice it all to keep what little you have left? Or will you risk everything trying to prove me wrong and fail?
I've been in that same boat Stefan. The losses adding up, the people looking at you like trash. We are not all that much different you and I. The difference being; that I no longer dwell on the past although it made me stronger then I've ever been. How will you handle Reaver chin checking you one more time? Will the third time be the charm for me against you to FINALLY become a champion? Or will you sneak by and steal the win with outside help. Or even try to get counted out just to keep what's rightfully mine?
This is what it means to not just be a champion but a Suicidal one at that. Take a look at me Raab. Look into my eyes and know that I AM the epitome of what it means to be the Suicidal Champion. Know that it not only was it foretold (by Salsman in accounting ) but how much more I want it, how much more I NEED it. How desperate I am to be this fucking close to the one thing I've only ever wanted so god damn badly and how much it hurts my veins to feel it. Throbbing in agony just to finally have my day in the sun Raab. Reaver-MANIA this weekend will be MY TIME FINALLY! If i have to rip every single limb off of your pathetic body in order to make that happen then I hope to god you invested in Jeff's insurance plan because you sure as hell will need it.
Knuckles stares deathly into the camera on how seriously he wants this, he needs this as the sun finishes setting over the Arena in the distance and the scene fades.
