The scene opens in a park. It's a beautiful sunny blue skied day. The birds chant back and forth as they bounce from branch to branch, soar from tree to tree. It's early afternoon, most people are therefore at work, so not much can be heard other than the songs of the birds and the occasional blowing of the soft wind. The camera pans around to find an unknown but smartly dressed young man sitting on the edge of a roman-style fountain. He lifts his head from it's relaxed state and begins to speak.
? - I may only be twenty seven years of age, yet I like many in this business have had to introduce myself to a new federation and a new audience countless times. I've learned during all those introductions that keeping it simple and basic is always the best route to take. So here goes, as you would probally have assumed from my accent I am an Englishman. I moved to Washington DC at the age of eighteen to further my wrestling career and further my life as a whole. Now I sit here nine years later having wrestled under numerous names and gimmicks as simply the real me with no crap and no baggage... My name is Steve Marlay, I'm a self made multi-millionaire and I am pretty damn sure you will all in time find out just why the one moniker that has stuck with me throughout my career and life is "The Money Maker".
Marlay takes a moment to pause before moving on.
Marlay - Just because I haven't shown my face on NCW TV till now, doesn't mean I haven't been watching and my opinions on you all will become much clearer over time I'm sure.
Steve reaches into the pocket of his smart black trousers, pulls out some loose change. He selects a coin from the palm of his hand and holds it up in front of his face as he returns the other to his pocket.
Marlay - I'm prepared, I work my ass off day in and day out to make sure that come fight nights, I'm in the best shape humanly possible.
Marlay tosses the coin into the fountain.
Marlay - I was never one to rely on tossing coins into fountains to make my wishes a reality. I believe in myself and make all my wishes a reality on my own accord. I do however hope you guys on the roster... oh and you Jimmy Turner made bloody good wishes on that coin, because you will all seriously need a healthy dose of something that resembles devine intervention to cope with what I can bring to the table.
Steve jumps off the fountain, straightens both his black trousers and smart dark red shirt. He starts wondering along a small path running towards the edge of the park.
Marlay - See you guys soon, some sooner that others I'm sure. Turner much like the business as a whole you cannot avoid me... for I am your destiny!!
Marlay smiles, he exits the park and the scene fades away as he strolls in the direction of a parked black Maserati Quattroporte.
