..::PROLOGUE::..
I have been in a few battles the last few weeks. I have fought bigger men than myself, and unfortunately, I came out on the losing end. Nothing to sneeze at though. I let them know I was there. I let them know that I wasn't playing around and that I will be a force to be reckoned with in NCW. I let them know that no matter what
Win...
Lose...
Or Draw...
Dr Jonas Potter will be standing in your way. Ready to battle it out tooth and nail to prove that I am the better man. I may not win them all, but I won't lose them all either. That's just my nature. I do not, and will not give up. I will continue to fight you..
Face to Face...
Nose to Nose...
Fist to Fist..
And I will not be denied. No matter the obstacle, and no matter the mountain I face ahead of me. I will continue to climb. I will continue to fight the good fight. This week, at Picture Perfect, I face a man named Seth Evans. He has had a lot to say, but yet, has said nothing. He doesn't know who I am, as I expected. You see, not doing your homework in this business can be detrimental to your health. You can be stepping into the ring with a madman for all you know. I could be a psychotic maniac hell bent on killing every man I step in the ring with. But you wouldn't know. Because you are too lazy or too inept to spend just a little time researching and checking to see exactly who I am.
Bad decision, mate!
While you were off rambling and ranting about wanting to be the best performer New Championship Wrestling has ever seen, I was doing some research. I see where you are the little engine that could. You scream and cry to the world..
"I think I can! I think I can! I think I can!"
And when the world comes crashing down on you, and you realize that not only could you not get the job done, but also that you were never going to get the job done. It's quite sad, really. I understand your attitude in your return however. That's who guys always work their returns, isn't it? The exact same schtick as the next guy won't win you any popularity contests, Seth. It won't even win you any originality contests. In the past few months since I came here, I have seen all of these prodigal sons return to NCW and all of them have said the same exact thing you said in your last promo.
Jimmy Zane!
Todd Williams!
Kristoff Liam Bates!
All of them sang the same tune you are singing. And do you know how many of them have really been successful in their return? Like really, successful?
NONE OF THEM!
Jimmy Zane is one half of the tag team champions, but lets face it. That incredibly large individual he is teaming with has a lot to do with that! Todd Williams? Please! He hasn't won a legitimate match in weeks and gets to battle Jimmy Zane this week for the title of who is the most pathetic. Then Kristoff Liam Bates! He came out like gangbusters, didn't he? He strung a series of wins together, rose to be Honor Champion, and then fell flat on his face!
SPLAT!
He hasn't won a match in a few weeks, and The Bob Pooler may just take that title from around his waist this weekend at Picture Perfect. So what makes you any different, Seth? Let me guess. Wait, don't tell me. I really want to guess! I got it! You are...
Different?
Stronger?
Smarter?
Better?
All of the above?
I am sure your response will be one of these, or something closely resembling them. But sadly, it's just another tactic people like you use to boost your own ego. It's something you guys use to make yourself feel better for being the slackers and losers that you really are. I have seen it so many times that I lost count. And when everything has been said and done this Sunday night at Picture Perfect, you will realize that your dream of becoming the best ever, is just that.
A BLOODY DREAM!
..::SETTING::..
The scene fades in as Potter is sitting in a doctor's office in a medical robe. He is propped up on the table and over to the side sits Phillip Claxton in a chair. They sit there talking about the upcoming pay per view, the past match, and whats in store for Potter's future.
..::DOCTOR JONAS POTTER::..
So I guess I didn't do so well this past week, did I?
..::PHILLIP CLAXTON::..
Are you mad? Those blokes will remember your name. They will remember that you are as tenacious as they come. That is just as important as a victory, my friend.
..::DOCTOR JONAS POTTER::..
I suppose you are correct.
..::PHILLIP CLAXTON::..
Besides, if that Xander character beats Verona this week, you can bet he won't want to face you one on one.
..::DOCTOR JONAS POTTER::..
Oh, I bet he would. Xander is an extremely talented performer and he, like me, welcomes any and all comers. I respect that a great deal.
..::PHILLIP CLAXTON::..
I can see that as well. He is a behemoth, though! You better watch out!
..::DOCTOR JONAS POTTER::..
Thanks for the news flash, Claxton! That would have been helpful Sunday night!
..::PHILLIP CLAXTON::..
(laughing) It bloody well looked like it!
..::DOCTOR JONAS POTTER::..
My whole body hurts after that bone rattling finisher he gave me. I haven't felt anything that devastating in years!
..::PHILLIP CLAXTON::..
It looked quite painful.
..::DOCTOR JONAS POTTER::..
Well, it felt even worse!
..::SETTING::..
Both men laugh as the door opens and in walks a colleague of Dr Potter's. Dr. Mullins steps in, smiling, chart in hand and shuts the door behind him.
..::DR MULLINS::..
Still taking part in these barbaric wrestling matches, are you?
..::DOCTOR JONAS POTTER::..
But of course!
..::DR MULLINS::..
Seriously, Jonas. Wouldn't you rather be back here in the hospital doing what you were meant to do than out there playing barbarian with a bunch of overgrown men in their knickers?
..::DOCTOR JONAS POTTER::..
You make it sound so tempting, however, I believe I am doing what I was meant to do.
..::DR MULLINS::..
(shaking his head) Well, if you say so. So, what's bothering you today?
..::DOCTOR JONAS POTTER::..
Yes!
..::DR MULLINS::..
Yes?
..::DOCTOR JONAS POTTER::..
Correct! Yes! Everything!
..::DR MULLINS::..
Oh dear! Another reason you need to quit this behavior and come back to your chosen profession. Well, let's have a look then!
..::SETTING::..
Dr Mullins goes through a battery of tests checking mobility, dexterity and various other aspects of Dr Potter's physical well being. He checks his torso, which is covered in severe bruising. Dr Mullins lifts Potter's left arm and Potter winces in pain. Dr Mullins then presses his fingers against Potter's ribs. Potter winces in pain again.
..::DR MULLINS::..
Jonas, are you aware that you have cracked ribs?
..::DOCTOR JONAS POTTER::..
Well, I am now. Are you sure?
..::DR MULLINS::..
Well, we need to do an XRay to be sure. But I am pretty sure that at least three are cracked, maybe more.
..::DOCTOR JONAS POTTER::..
Bollocks!
..::DR MULLINS::..
My opinion is, you should sit this one out, Jonas.
..::DOCTOR JONAS POTTER::..
Like bloody hell I will!
..::DR MULLINS::..
You can become severely injured if you compete this weekend, Jonas. Think of your long-term health.
..::DOCTOR JONAS POTTER::..
I am. I have NEVER missed a match, and I don't plan on missing one this weekend.
..::DR MULLINS::..
Suit yourself, but don't say you haven't been warned.
..::DOCTOR JONAS POTTER::..
Well, then. Thanks for the warm and fuzzy news. I think I will be going now.
..::SETTING::..
Dr Mullins shakes his head and gives Potter a look. A frustrated Jonas gives him a look back as the Dr exits the room. Claxton sits in silence as Potter gets dressed. The pain in his side is obvious from the expressions on his face. As he pulls on his waistcoat and jacket, he grabs up his vintage bowler hat and cane and walks out the door. Claxton follows him out and as the door shuts behind him, the scene fades to black.
..::EPILOGUE::..
Injuries happen in this business. As you can see by the previous segment, I sit here now with cracked ribs resulting from that devastating finisher I received from Xander Fumalaro last week. It was earth shattering to tell the truth, and I pity Roberto Verona for likely receiving this same maneuver this week. Well, really, I don't. Verona probably deserves it more than most, so it shall do me well to see him destroyed by Xander! It will be nothing short of outstanding!
Extraordinarily Outstanding.
Now, back to this Seth Evans character. It shall serve you well to do your due diligence in preparing for this match, good sir. The more prepared you are, the greater my victory shall be. The more in tune with whats going on in this match you are, the better I look when I stand over you victorious! You see, Mr Evans, you aren't the only one who wants to rise to the top of New Championship Wrestling. You aren't the only one who wants to prove that you are one of the brightest stars that this company has to offer. I, too, wish to prove to management that I have what it takes to be that man. But I don't do it through running my trap endlessly about it. I don't do it by talking about it over and over until someone finally believes me.
I prove it in the ring!
And come Sunday, at Picture Perfect, I plan to prove that I, not you, am far better equipped to handle the title of fastest rising star than you are. Who knows? Maybe you will get lucky and squeak out a victory! Wait, hold on...
..::SETTING::..
Potter pulls out a magic eight ball and begins shaking it as he smirks into the camera. He pulls it close to his mouth and asks the magic eight ball a question.
Does Seth Evans have any chance of winning this match this weekend?
..::SETTING::..
Potter stops shaking the eight ball and awaits the answer. As it comes up, he looks back into the camera.
Poor Seth. Signs point to no! Better luck next time.
