We open the show with Griffin in the center of the ring, dressed in black jeans and a Slaughter T-Shirt. He waits for his music to end before speaking.
Griffin Hawkins: It seems..a lot of people have been asking me a lot of questions lately...what's the history between me and Billy Feral? Why am I so pissed off at him? Well..it's hard to remember where it all started..but I do know one incident that caused this bad blood between us. See...some years ago, me and Billy Feral were both upcoming musicians, starting out playing at weddings, bars, whatever we can to scrape things together. But in many competitions such as The Battle of the Bands, my band Devilition always seemed to come out on top...and that ate him up inside. Finally one day.....it all came out. After one of my live performances, he attacked me from behind, knocking me down. It turned into a massive fight, but I managed to get some shots in. He was arrested by security and hauled out of the arena. I never saw him again...but I did keep tabs on him. *Reaches into his back pants pocket and pulls out a Rolling Stones magazine with Slash on the cover* This article here in the 2007 edition of Rolling Stones Magazine talks about Billy and his wacky misadventures. *opening the book, turning a few pages* It reads.."Billy Feral..a young up and comer has the passion to be the next biggest musician on the circuit, but his wild bad boy out of control antics have made him more famous than his on stage performances have." This wouldn't be the last magazine that reads this..news articles from all over the world have said the same thing about Billy...how he believes in his own hype. I figured at this point he was off somewhere performing in far away places..but it looks like he managed to find his way back to me. He wants his shot at redemption, he wants revenge for the humiliation I put him through, but here's the truth cats and kitties, if he steps in this ring with me, his problems won't be ending..they'll be getting much much worse, and that's a promise.
[The instrumental track of "Devils" by 69 Eyes hit's the PA. Columns of fire shoot up on the stage and through the curtains steps the tall form of a man wearing black leather pants and a motorcycle jacket. In his gloved hands is a custom chrome cange with a skull atop it. He speaks into the skull, giving away that it was indeed a live microphone. His voice is a deep, powerful Baritone, as he addresses Griffin standing in that ring.]
Billy Feral: You call me nothing but hype, but you are the one that has to reaffirm his greatness to the ears of the fans in this arena. You're the one doing all the talking and yet you forget, I was one of the proud who took the fall and look at me now, Griffin. LOOK AT ME...
Billy throws off his jacket to reveal an impressively cut physique underneath, flexing his rippling pale flesh.
Billy Feral: ...I'm not some drunken bean pole anymore. I'm the Predator and you are the feast that I'm stalking. I fully intend to choke you with your own words, Griffin Hawkins! I will be the one that puts an end to your legacy in a humiliating defeat as I out play you at every TURN!
Griffin Hawkins: It gonna take more than a million dollar body and idle threats to rattle me Billy. I've been beat up and thrown around by bigger badder and better guys than you in the last few years..and NOBODY has been able to keep me down. I don't respect you...I don't fear you...and I am not intimidated by you.
His lip twitches a bit as he stares hard at Griffin. Billy brought the chrome skull back up to his lips.
Billy Feral: And that's why I'll be breaking you in half, Hawkins. You see, the wise man can recognize the threat before him. You just stand their posturing and strutting like a proud peacock, trying to make me seem insignificant. You see nothing, well your blindness is your downfall!
Griffin Hawkins: -chuckles to himself- Blindness? Dude seriously, I don't know what kind of mushrooms you had on your pizza for lunch today, but the only one blind is you. You're only here because you blame me for your downfall, you blame-
Billy Feral: ...Do you always talk down to people like that, Griffin? Do you always play the high and mighty card? HA! I may be new to your little family here in EWC, but let me tell you about some of the individuals I have broken as part of my training before I came here. For a Decade, it wasn't just training. I stepped into small wrestling arenas wearing a mask. I called myself The Lord of Darkness. Pretentious? Certainly. But I got results. Every man that faced me played me off as nothing and do you know what happened, Griffin? I broke spines... legs... arms and hands, even necks.
He paces that stage, chuckling darkly.
Billy: I've ended at least twenty separate careers of aspiring wrestlers all just to prepare for you. One of them was even a black belt in BJJ, an art I understand that you practice. Him? He put me into an armbar outside the ring, one of those fancy ones where he hung off me. I slung him once... twice... three times into the ring post until I heard a crack and he fell. That man is no longer capable of walking anymore.
His gaze blazes with lethal intentions as he glared hard at Griffin. His lips spread with a devilish grin.
Billy Feral: I know what I am measured to some of the people you've faced, but I have something they don't. I have a burning hatred for you that none of them could ever surpass. Hate gives me power. Hate gives me focus. HATE.... is what I will conquer you with, drowning you in your own words and hype, Griffin Hawkins.
Billy rolls his neck.
Billy Red: If not for this stupid ruling by our great leader, I'd do it right... the fuck... NOW.
Griffin Hawkins: There will come a time when you and I will meet face to face in this ring, and all the red tape in the world that Saint is throwing at us won't stop a goddamn thing. You obviously come all this way to seek revenge on me for what I've done to you...so I'll be generous and give you the chance to do so next week on Rampage..hell, I'll even give you a title shot at the TV Belt to sweeten the pot if you somehow manage to beat me in this ring. What do you say to that?
Billy paces the stage, looking up at the Arena lights that shined down above him for a moment. He then smiles and turns to look back at Griffin in the ring.
Billy Feral: A low tier Champion putting a low tier championship on the line... well.. I suppose a man has to put his foot in the door at some point.
With a snicker, Mr. Feral gives the answer...
Billy Feral: You're on, Hawkins... I will strip that belt from you and with it will come the great bounty of your broken pride.
Griffin Hawkins: You know..in our first confrontation, you kicked me in the dick, when we meet in this ring..this "low tier" Champion that you called me just now, is gonna take this size 16 cowboy boot and kick you right in your fat head, and I guarantee you will NOT get up!
Billy Feral: Catch me if you can, Hawkins...
["Devils" by the 69 Eyes hit the PA system, drowning out the arena. He then shot that sick grin of his. After quickly gathering his jacket up, Billy Feral backed up through the curtains while drawing the skull cane across his throat in a cutthroat fashion and we go to commercial.]
