The line in the sand (Invite)

[Xander Xavier Luther]

XXL raises his eyebrow...

Uh...what the hell are you talking about? You know something, you all sure do like to here yourselves speak don't you? Lemme break it down for as easy as I can. XXL is second to none in this business, and in this company. These three men you see here know that the measure of man is not in one single win...something that you don't seem to understand. I don't expect for sorry excuses for combatants to understand those kinda things, cuz Jon and I, well...we were spawned from a very distinctive "teacher", and Lionheart knows the deal from all the years he's been in the game and all the places he's gone to work for.

Something that's called LEGACY. You make it each and everytime that you step out here and put on the show for these fans. The only legacy that any of you have are trash-talking, excuse making, ego-tripping assholes. Only one believing their own hype here Primo, is you. You and everyone else in that ring, cuz the hype that WE bring...these fans here damn sure BELIEVE IT!

The crowd responds with a resounding ovation.

You hear that, boys? That's what LEGACY is all about. That's the respect you earn when you pay your dues...when you look past what it is you do for yourself and focus on what it is that you do for this business. You aren't doing a goddamn thing for anybody but yourselves, but ask yourselves this question: who really gives a damn about you?

Only thing you are is the big, bad face of what's wrong with this industry, and why it's been the downfall of many other federations...egos who think that they can do and say what they want. I'll be damned if I let you have your way in MY company. I say MY because Gallas, no matter how hard you try to prove it, it's never going to be yours. WE bulit the XWA, your father and Carmella Blackheart built the XWA and we're not going to let you and the F-Troop here tear it down. Bank on that.

[primo]

Primo smirks...

Legacy? Let's speak about legacies. Let's speak about past triumphs. I've not lost a match in well over a year, spanning the fallen LXW, TNB AND XWA. I'm to this day the youngest and champion of Europe ever. I was trained by the LEGENDARY Otto Marstorius, one of the few men in the world who can say they actually have a WIN versus your "mentor". And of course, I am King Of Crimson. Which symbolizes I am the most RUTHLESS man not just in XWA, but in the INDUSTRY. THAT my good man, is "legacy". And before my career is over, I'll have surpassed ALL who oppose me. You see, you all are the now. You're big names as it stands. But me, I am the FUTURE. And the FUTURE is now.

Make no mistakes. This belt here is not the only one I have in my sights. No no. Just like YOU Mr. Luther, I have aspirations of being World Champion. And I, unlike you, the current world champ, the Former world champ, the men standing beside you, the men standing behind me, and EVERY man woman and child in the locker room have something you all can only dream off. The PEDIGREE of a champion. I am a true blue blood. Untainted by the soils of this "American" wrestling. I am the ONLY TRUE wrestler in thsi company. Not the bastardization of the noble sport that you infidels dirty this ring with every week. I only prey that the man I do eventually face for the World Title is you, so that I can show you just how insignifigant you truly are in this ring. But I digress. My first order of business is seeing to the END of the "Legacy" of Chris Lionheart. Your ends shall come as followed.

[Jon Payne]

Blah, blah, blah, blah!!! You do like to hear yourselves talk it seems, but you aren't really saying jack, Primo. None of you have really said much of anything here but toot your own damn horns. God, my ears are going to bleed here.

You did this, you were trained by this guy, you can do this that and the other. Will you please give us mercy and put a sock in it! That's not a legacy, my friend...it's just more of that hype that XXL here was talking about.

To my left here is the longest running champion in the history of the XWA. The first ever National Champion. The BEST big man in the business today.

To my right is man who has been a World Champion, and Undisputed Champion, Double Champ, Triple Champ...hell, he's held title gold in every place he's stepped foot in.

In the middle you have a former XWA World Champion, a man who's responsible for launching more damn careers than he cares to count.

THAT'S LEGACY.

Truth be told, boys...you might very well kick our asses tonight. Guess what though, as far as history is concerned and far as these fans are concerned, it's not our matches to win. They're your matches to lose...because no matter what the outcome tonight, let's just face facts...

...hang on, more gimmick infringmement comin'...

...we'll always be better than you. Nuff. Said. Now if you'll excuse us, the only talking left to do will be the "talking" in the ring...

[avenger]

Suddenly the music of the Avenger comes on and out walks the man that so many have talked about. He has a mic in his hand as he is in the middle of alot of the XWA guys and sees Lionheart.

Well if this isn't the great XWA! The federation that the Avenger saw for weeks at his home in Panama City until some smart guys came a calling to grab someone that can really put the sport back on top and can call someone worthy of holding gold. Someone that won't put a "black eye" on the sport and someone that cares nothing for any of you but only cares for one thing and that is delivering pain. Now the Avenger looks at you guys bickering over this SuperShow as the Avenger will later drop Kevin Rush from any dreams he had of success. But you see there are some guys in here that have gold and eventually can't run and hide under the dresses of the XWA for too long.

Now boys the Avenger has come to the XWA with a lucrative contract and here to be once again the biggest draw. But honestly when the Avenger looks at you guys and what the Avenger saw from clips; it should be obvious who should be wearing gold and it should be obvious who is the man above boys in here. So tonight is the debut of the most anticipated debut ever. So you boys bicker about what you want to do but the Avenger plans on dropping each and every one of you if it means getting to the main purpose that the Avenger is here.

The fans begin chanting as the other wrestlers are surprised to see the Avenger come out. They all realize all the hype that came with the announcement.

Now the Avenger is here to make sure that the TNB stays true with "Legacy" as the biggest name ever comes to defend its honor. The Avenger isn't doing this for Lionheart, Genesis, or any of the other stars but for what the Avenger built with his own two hands and blood. The Avenger is here to show the world that he is the greatest ever and any of you get in the way of the Avenger! Well lets just say bad things tend to happen. Victim #1 is tonight and who knows if any of you got any balls about ya then you will step up as well.

The Avenger looks at all the wrestlers and then smiles at Gallas.

Gallas! Remember you wanted the Avenger to bring what he brought in the TNB and paying the salary. Don't be surpressed when the Avenger destroys this so called talent and dominates like only the Avenger can do.

Avenger looks at the crowd and quotes one of his biggest catchphrases.

Remember boys "Not only is the Avenger the best at what he can do but He is the ONLY one that can do what he can do." Let that be something for all of you to remember as the Avenger makes the XWA his new home. You are all paying rent now and the Avenger is making this his new stomping ground and by the way most of you in this arena have been wrestling it seems you are a few weeks behind in paying up. If you want to call the Avenger the landlord then that is fine because the Avenger plans on collecting rent and claiming his place on stage. The Avenger has spoken and things will come to pass as they are written.

[sab]

Puzzled, Sabastien looks at his allies in the ring. He then begins to laugh. Taking the mic from Primo, he speaks.

My friend, it appears you have the wrong Gallas in mind. I hold you and your TNB cohorts in as much regard as I would having a rash in between my toes. If you think I care for one possible second about you and you "Little" accomplishments, then you're as silly as that fool Lionheart next to you. Or the other two fools who "think" they've got prayer standing against me. You ALL will soon learn, very soon, and very forcefully that this company, XWA, is under a new...*eh heh* "Regime". One that won't fail like "past" ones. One that stands for TRUE greatness. The greatness that comes from absolute power. We've entertained you peons enough for tonight. The game is now afoot gentlemen. I prey you all are prepared to play it to the end. For if not, you'll all be crushed beneath my boot. Now then. Since everyone has matches in place, I'd advise you all to quit playing the "hero" roles and prepare for them. In other words...

Get out of my sight.[/color]

[Jon Payne]

Wow...there's just a whole bunch of egos running around here, aren't they? Well...do your research and you'll what it is that I do to types like you, Avenger...you Gallas, and pretty much everyone standing in that ring. That's why they call me Mr. Momentum Killer. You think you're going to have good night Sabby...think again.

Time to earn your pay, boys...that might be a new concept to some of you of you but don't worry, we'll break you in nice and easy. Or not.

With that, Payne pats XXL on the chest to head backstage and get ready for the night's festivities.

BuZZ: What a way to kick thing off! The new GM has got some real swagger to him, but it doesn't look like anyone is going to back down from him anytime soon.

Roach: You can cut the tension with a knife, that's for sure.

BuZZ: The tension! The Drama! The matches! This show is gonna be...be...

Roach: Super?

BuZZ: Yeah baby, yeah!!!
