Its Sunday afternoon at the Xcel Energy Center in Saint Paul, Minnesota. Backstage, hours before Shockwave is set to begin, we see Chris Cyrus standing in front of the Shockwave poster, In his street close, with the camera on him
Chris: Let me introduce myself. My name is Chris….Cyrus. Now what does that mean. It means that I’ve been in APW for over 3 and a half years. The longest active wrestler currently in APW. I’m an APW Original, the only guy currently on the Roster who has wrestled on the very first APW show. It also means that I’ve won and lost my fair share of matches. I’ve won my fair share of titles. It also means that I am a triple crown champion. Two time tag team champion, overdrive Champion and the greatest Xtreme Champion of all time when I held the title for 364 days. And after tonight, it will also mean that Chris Cyrus is the 2nd person in APW history to become a grand slam champion.
Tonight at Shockwave, finally, I get to go one on one with The Gambler, and it will be for the Suicidal Championship. I’ve been waiting for this match for a very long time. Since Test for the Best when The Gambler cost me the Vacant World Heavyweight Title. See, this match, its been in the making for three months. That’s three months of having a pain in your ass every time you go to that ring. That’s three month of getting screwed over, and over and over again. Well, no more. Tonight Gambler, you and me in a Deuces Wild match. All the pain, the suffering, the screwing over that you did to me for the past three month, it will be all worth it after I beat you tonight, IN YOUR OWN MATCH to take that Suicidal Championship from you
I want to talk about the Deuces Wild match. This is the most unpredictable match ever in APW. Because, you just don’t know what kind of Gimmick this match will turn into. It can go from a singles match, to a hardcore match, to your favorite, the Boxers or Briefs match. See, the last time we had a match like this, you we’re in it Gambler, back in the IWC days at Massacre on 34th Street when you defeated Trevor Blackwell. I went back and watched that match several times, and I did what I could to prepare myself for whatever match type happened to appear in our match. I’m ready for anything tonight Gambler. It doesn’t matter what kind of match, our match turns into, because when the dust is settled and the smoke is clear, I will be named the winner and new APW Suicidal Champion.
Now Gambler, I had the chance to hear what you recently said about me, and all I got to say about it, is that I’m disappointed in you. After all this time of you and I going at it, it comes down to this and the best thing you can call me is a Punk? And that your strategy for this match is to hope I screw up? We’ll I hate to burst your bubble, but I’m not going to screw up. This isn’t just some random throw away match. This is a Championship match at the second Biggest Pay Per View of the Year! So much history has taken place at this event. Even for me. At the first Shockwave PPV, I successfully defended my Tag Titles with Jason Royce. The year after that, I defeated Slade Craven in a Blaze of Glory match to retain my Xtreme Championship. Last year, well, didn’t turn out to well for me, but tonight, I will be added back to the history book when I become a grand slam champion.
Gambler, I was hoping for some more fire out of you, I was hoping that you would come out swinging pulling all shots at me in your promo, but I guess your just an over confident jackass. Well, you better pray that I’m off my game tonight because that’s the only chance you have of walking out the champion. And something you mentioned, You hope one of the stipulation is a loser leaves APW match. I hope so too, Because no only will it be sweet for me to take that championship from you, but it will be even sweeter when I’m the one who ends your APW career. And I guarantee you that the fans will agree with me on that one.
So tonight Gambler, at Shockwave 2011, a New Chris Cyrus Era will begin. Like it or not, I’m taking that title from you and putting an end to our feud. I’m sick and tired of you and everything you’ve done to me. I’ve beaten your partner Bobby Bodacious, I’ve beaten Blade and now tonight, I beat you. And while I do it, I’ll be sending you Straight…to Hell.
Oh, and one more thing, Gambler, remember, My name is Chris Cyrus, and that means I AM BETTER THAN YOU!
With that, Chris Cyrus walks away and the scene fades to black.
