-=Outside of what appears to be an abandoned warehouse a camera comes on. The sun is high, and the temperature is a comfortable 65°F. There is a door off to the one side and the camera slowly approaches the door. Voices can be heard from behind the door, followed by thumping sounds. The camera man opens the door and reveals X-Rated inside of the warehouse wrestling inside of what appears to have been at one time a wrestling ring with a no one. The inside of the building looks just as run down as the outside. The camera man slowly walks up to the ring as X-Rated delivers the “X-Ecution” on his sparing partner. X-Rated walks over to the corner and is handed a towel and a bottle of water by XXX. He stands in the corner leaning over the top rope drinking the water. The camera man positions himself under X-Rated and zooms in on his face. X-Rated has a look of intensity that has never been seen by anyone in the ICWL before=-

X-Rated: “Killah Sin……..The self proclaimed World Wide Superstar. To him I’m just a local average Joe looking for international attention. Well, Sin I am anything by average! ‘K’ may have gotten into my head and thrown me off my game, and I may not be stand before you all as the Hardcore Champion like I claimed I would be, but none of that matters now! All that matters, all that I am focusing on is You Sin, you and your world championship! I have finally figured out how you became the World Champion of the ICWL in the first place, the answer was staring me in the face the whole time; you are in the back pocket of Sugar J! Well, neither Sugar J, nor his money can save you or your championship, come Saturday night at Knockout!”


{X-Rated drops the bottle of water and lifts his head}

X-Rated: “Sin, you may think this is a joke. That I am nothing more then a pretty face, with a supermodel on my arm in hopes of drawing attention away from myself, Hell, you may have only given me the title shot because you thought it would be a walk in the park, a way of showing all the “Rookies” not to come stepping up to you! But that was your mistake! You have already fallen victim to my mind games, see I manipulated you into this match, I didn’t think you would be so bold as to put the championship on the line, but hey I have no problems shattering your pride completely, because when I step into that ring with you that is exactly what I am going to do, shatter your pride, and deflate your ego! You have been the World Champion since February 11th, an impressive run, but not an impossible one seeing as you haven’t defended it against anyone worth talking about. But that is all about to change, it’s time the new face of ICWL stands up and takes his rightful spot, and that new face is mine! Sin, you spent a lot of time talking trash, saying nothing more then I am not even really worthy of the title shot, and your right I guess, I haven’t really earned it yet, and I know Sugar J doesn’t make it a practice to just hand out Championship matches to everyone that walks through the door, but don’t be mistaken, he had the power to stop this match up, and he has chosen not to, why you might ask? The Answer is simple, even your “Fam” has grown tired of seeing you as Champ! On paper you made a great champion, one of the best, but this isn’t paper, it’s real life, and in real life you SUCK!”

{X-Rated hops out of the ring and drapes the towel over his shoulder}

X-Rated: “You think you know all there is to know about me, you think you got me completely figured out already. Well Sin, you are in for a BIG surprise, after you agreed to our match up last week, and even opted to put the World Championship on the line I decided that I was going to take it easy on Saturday, because I knew that you wouldn’t have been able to help yourself but come out and try and get into the middle of the match, but is appeared I wasn’t the only one that thought that, K tripped you on way into the ring. But see the big difference between you and me Killah Sin is simple……I’M NOT SCARED OF YOU, BUT YOU ARE SCARED OF ME! now I know you are wonder where in the hell I came up with that conclusion or maybe K dropped me on my head a lot harder then everyone thought. Well he didn’t, the reason I have come to that conclusion is simple, when I brought the fight to you it was when you were at your best! I came after you before your match up even started well you were still fresh, but you, you sat in the back watched the TV’s real close and wait until K had finished the job before you decided to try and get me! That’s the difference between you and I…..FEAR! I fear no one, and well you fear anyone that can actually put an end to your title rein, and I’m someone that can, and you know it! I’ll spare you the normal things that are said to a champion before a match, I will let my actions do the talking, this week at Knockout I will, mark my words, will be at the top of my game, and I hope and pry you will be too, because I don’t want any excuses from you after the match and I’m standing above you with the World Title strapped firmly around my waist, no I want you with you’re ‘A’ Game so that the whole world knows who the real “Top Dog” is!”

-=X-Rated grabs his bag that sits beside the ring on the floor and walks towards the door with XXX at his side. He pauses for a moment and turns around looking back at the ring and the unconscious person laying in the middle of it, before he pushes open the door and walks out of the warehouse, the camera fades out=-
