I've done allot of things wrong in the name of wrestling...
I've embarrassed people who deserved my respect...
Pissed on people who did nothing wrong...
I've ended careers...
And for what?
For the fans?
Nah...
For myself?
A little...
Did it make me feel better knowing someone else had suffered at my hands?
Yes...
Your right Kyle... Absolutely right... There is something deep inside me that begs me... Claws at me... To hurt people... To push them away and... And to destroy them... It yearns for their pain, their suffering, their ****ing tears....
Is that what you want to hear?
Rob Diamond has emotional issues and making grown men call me daddy makes me feel better. Are you happy now Kyle? I out right admitted it. But what does that change? Huh? Am I suddenly better? No. I'm still me. I still carry around the burden of my entire career, of my father, my brother, of everything I'll never be...
I'm not you.
And I never could be Kyle. I can't be the honorable hero fighting for the little guy because I don't ****ing care. I can't be the cocky villain who is only out for himself because truth be told, I'm not.
I'm Rob Diamond.
And what I fight for... What I'll be fighting for this Sunday night...
It's changed.

{ Rob sat on the front porch of Gib's home. He fumbled around with something in his hands, slowly moving it from finger to finger and then back to the start. He let out a deep sigh as he looked up into the sky. }
What do you fight for Kyle?
Seriously, I wanna know what you get up for every morning, is it really because wrestling is all you know, or is there something else?
There has to be Kyle, there has to be a deeper reason to fight as hard as you fight, to push as hard as you push. Don't misunderstand me, your not the same Falcon I fought before, you've lost something, but there has to be a reason you did what you did to Velez, a reason you stood so firmly against the Young Guns.
Why?
I want the real reason Kyle, not what the magic mirror thinks, not the first retarded answer that pops in your head, no bull****. I want the god's honest truth. What does Falcon fight for?
It can't be the fans, you turned your back on them.
It's not for glory, you scoff at everyone whose ever made that claim.
Money?
Women?
What is it Kyle?
Do you fight just to feel?[/color]
{ Rob looks down into the palms of his hands, whatever is there has his complete attention. }
That's it, isn't it Kyle?
You've turned your back on everything you stand for, everything you have ever loved about this business, you have become what you hate the most... And now you stand there, on top of the world, all by yourself...
No friends...
No family.
No one...
Just Kyle and his thoughts.
So you keep fighting, hoping, praying, someone will step up and they will be the one to hurt you bad enough, push you far enough,brake you bad enough that you'll know your still alive just by the pain they've caused you. You step up to the biggest, baddest dog in the yard and all but beg it to bite you, to attack you, to rip you to pieces.
Your walking into this match all but prepared to be destroyed because you know what this match means to me, what that title means to me. You know first hand how hungry I am, how far I'll go, what I'll do to put you down on the mat.
You know.
And you want it, your praying for it, because out of everyone here, everyone around us, I'm the only one who can do it.
I can end you...
And you want me to, that's the catch. You want me to bring an end to the pain that has been your life, to the hell that you have caused yourself. You've been walking down this road far too long all by yourself Kyle, your whole career in fact. And all those nice words you preach, they aren't for me, their for you. Your telling me what YOU need to hear. What you wish someone had told you.
Because...
Your dead inside, Kyle...
And your looking for someone to do you one better.[/color]
{ The door opens behind Rob and someone steps out. Rob quickly closes his hand and shoves it into his pocket as Steve Awesome takes a seat next to him. }
"Whats up man? I heard the news, must be pretty damn relieved?"
{ Rob half rolls his eyes. }
"Yeah... Super relieved..."
{ Sarcasm drips off every word as Steve takes a seat next to him and slaps him on the back. }
"It's all right man, I've had my fair share of close calls. It happens."
{ Rob doesn't really look at Steve as he twirls his index finger in the air. }
"Woo... Hoo..."
{ Obviously catching on. }
"You ok man? You don't seem as happy as I thought you'd be."
"Honestly?"
{ Steve nods his head, truthfully wanting to know if his brother in Infamy was happy with the news. Rob looks down as he pulls his hand out of his pocket. Steve leans over so he can see as Rob slowly unfolds each finger... }
You wanna know what I'm fighting for this Sunday, Kyle? What's pushing me to be better than I've ever been before? Why this match suddenly means more to me than it will ever mean to you?[/color]
{ Steve's eyes light up as he sees the object in Rob's hand. }
"Daaaaaaamn."
"I..."
I'm fighting for the future.[/color]
"...Was gonna ask her to marry me..."
{ Rob's hand closes as his eyes water up a little. }
"...If she was... pregnant..."
{ Fade. }
The one Zelda and I are going to make together.
Because I found something to fight for...
Someone to fight for...
Someone to care about...
Someone I want to be with for the rest of my life...
So whose pushing people away Kyle?
Whose all alone on top of the world?
Whose standing by your side?
Because when I look around me...
I see legends...
I see Hall of Famers...
I see my friends...
My family....
And her...
Zelda...
The woman I love...
All you have is fifteen pounds of gold...
And a broken reflection...
Which by your logic means you have absolutely nothing.
You fight for nothing...
And Sunday...
You become nothing.
Suck it.[/color][/center]
