Still satisfied with his victory with Steve Toreno, "Wild Thing" James Bowen remains humble, as the fans cheer.
James: In my first tag team match ever in my ten years in the sport, I was victorious. Now, what championship should I try and go for? The Light Heavyweight title? Or the Tag Team titles?
James listens to the crowd to decide his path...

Suddenly, flames burst from the set, and the menacing theme of the largest man in wrestling hits the PA...
Buzz: Oh my god. BOWEN!!! If you can hear me, RUN!!! RUN THE HELL AWAY!!!
Roach: I'm still freaked out when I see this guy. Ladies and gents, the LARGEST man in the business. 7'2". 480lbs. The COLOSSUS Of Blackpool, Steven Higby. ANY match against this man is a potentially career ending match, and it seems he's just put Bowen in his sights.
The massive Higby lumber towards the ring, his eyes fixated on the man within. James Bowen clearly had no idea of the destructive force that approached him. The force that nearly ended the careers of Joey Curtis and Chris Hevessey, and dominated such men as Jon Payne and Adam Devlin in the past. But this Steven Higby was a new, more dangerous man. All that he saw now weren't men. He saw lambs to be led to his slaughter. Higby bounds up to the apron, and steps over the ropes. He stands within mere feet of Bowen, and dwarfed the man as if he were an infant. Higby simply stands, staring a hole into the sole of James Bowen. He awaits his next words.

James: Big man, I got no beef with you. Why are you here?

Higby swipes the mic from out of Bowen's hand and speaks.
I'm 'ere b'cause I don't like the way your FACE looks. I look at you, and y'make me PUKE. I've taken DUMPS that look tougher then you. And tonight, I think I right well feel like breakin' ya' bloody neck. The last thing y'should be worried about is a title. You need t'be worried about y'HEALTH. I'm gonna break your arse in two.
He shoves the mic back into Bowen's chest and waits for his response.

James: You think you can intimidate me, big man? Then you're sadly mistaken. I have fought a few giants in my career; when they think they got me down, I pick myself up and keep fighting. Because I go by one quote: NEVER SURRENDER!!!
The fans cheered James for standing up to the giant.
James: Since you don't like me, it seems like you want to pick a fight with me? You got it, right here, next week, one-on-one.

Buzz: I don't think Bowen quite realizes that there IS no rhyme ofr reason into anything Higby does. But when you're just a hair away from 500lbs, do you really need a reason?
Roach: Not a chance. I give props to James for not backing down, but you've gotta wonder if he's biting off more then he can chew. I don't think anyone on the planet would have faulted him for not taking this fight. But as it stands, it looks like we're gonna see the 1st 2008 in ring appearance of The Colossus next week from the Gampel Pavilion.
Higby says not a word. He just scowls at Bowen. With out any warning, he simply turns his back to the man, and steps over the ropes to the ring floor. Not even bothering to look back, Higby lumbers back up the walkway as his music plays. Why would Higby challenge one of the rookies? And why was he without Marshall Dane? Many questions would come from this. The answers would come soon enough.
