The GM of XWA makes a surprising appearance in the ring. As usual, when Gallas shows up, something interesting is about to go down. He beckons for a mic and begins to address the crowd.
Soul Survivor was a resounding success as usual. And on behalf of all XWA, I 'zank all of you...our loyal fans...for the still increasing support. But 'zat is not 'ze reason why I stand here. I stand here to address a situation which occurred at Soul Survivor. 'Ze issue between Nathan Browne and Michael Xavier. For weeks, 'zey have wrestled tooth and nail. And it came to a head at Soul Survivor in an interesting way. With both men approaching Bryan Jasta to be 'ze next man's opponent for 'ze night. As you all saw, I intervened and made it so 'zat Xavier got his much deserved 2nd shot at Jasta, and Browne to test 'ze extent of his skill against by far one of, if not 'ZE greatest competitor in 'ze industry, Dru Nedemeyer. 'Ze result was a pair of classic matches, as I knew 'ze would be. But 'zen 'zat got me to imagining other possibilities.
Tony: Uh oh. It can't be good when he does that.
Willy: No kiddin'...
All 4 men are in 'ze building tonight. And I no less can imagine 'zat 'zey are also ready to compete. And 'zey will...against each other. But not how you 'zink 'zey will. Tonight, we're going to see 'ze 4 of them compete in a Tornado Tag match. A match 'zat will see Soul Survivor's match ups...be PARTNERS in 'ze ring.
The crowd explodes in a thunderous cheer.
Wait a minute! That means that...it's gonna be Browne and Nedermeyer vs...NO WAY!
Oh man. You knew he was going to do something nuts, but this takes the freaking cake!
Gallas smiles and nods, but it would seem he was about to be joined by one of two very disgruntled employees.

A livid Bryan Jasta steps into the arena. He storms out to the ring like a bat out of hell. Sliding into the ring, he calls for a mic and waste no time with his grievance.
This is OUTRAGEOUS!!! You expect me...ME...to team up with 2nd rate hack like Michael Xavier? Are you INSANE!!! I'm BRYAN JASTA dammit! I refuse to be subjected to this kind of garbage. I might have lost the match at Soul Survivor between he and I, but take a look at his face after the bell rung. You know damn well who won the fight. ME. He beat me on sheer god damn LUCK. Everyone in this building...hell...everyone on the PLANET knows that one on one, when I have time to prepare, I'd l DESTROY his ass. I'll leave him so mangled that they won't even be able to ID his body by dental records. And you expect me to team up with that loser? Against Dru Nedermeyer? Why not get me Chet Dixon for a partner while you're at it. I don't like losing, Gallas. But putting me in a match where I have to team up with a man that YOU have more in ring talent then, is condemning me to a guaranteed loss. I'm not standing for this. An agitated Jasta waits for Gallas' response. |

Gallas' demeanor changes almost in an instant after Jasta's response.
Is 'zat right? Well last I checked, I was 'ze one signing YOUR paychecks. You see, for to long I've sat by and watched XWA's superstars run around doing whatever 'zey so pleased. It's high time 'ze it's re-established 'zat you ALL are before any'zing else...EMPLOYEES. And I'm your boss. So you will be partaking in 'zis match tonight. Otherwise, I'll hold you in breach of your contract, which means I won't have to pay you tonight. You see, it appears 'zat the fastest way to put all of you youngsters in place is to hit you where it hurts the most. The wallet.
The fans cheer as it appears at long last that "The Boss" was back.
And further more, I'd love to see if in fact you can prove your words. While Xavier did defeat you at Soul Survivor, he didn't do it as convincingly as one would have thought. It was a win, yes. But I know for a fact that a man of his stature wants more then just to beat you. He wants to send a message. A statement. So what am I going to do about 'zat? Simple. Next week, when Overload broadcasts live from the HSBC Center in Albany, 'ze main event will be Michael Xavier Vs. Bryan Jasta, one on one...to settle this issue of who's the better man once and for all. But I'm not going to choose 'ze stipulation. And neither are you. And neither is Xavier for 'zat matter. 'Zey are.
Gallas points out to the masses. The cheers of the fans explode.
It's going to be a "Viewer's Choice" match. At 'ze end of tonight's program, we're going to open up a toll free hotline. And 'ze fans will be able to choose one of 4 matches 'zat you two will partake in...
A King's Road match
A Parking Lot Brawl
A Buried Alive Match
Or my personal favorite...
A brief and dramatic pause...
THUNDERDOME!
The roof of the arena nearly explodes after the last choice was made. The crowd suddenly starts the world famous chant...
Two men enter, one man leaves...
Two men enter, one man leaves...
TWO MEN ENTER, ONE MAN LEAVES...
TWO MEN ENTER, ONE MAN LEAVES!!!
Gallas calms down the masses.
Now let's see if the two of your larger 'zen life EGOS can coexist tonight against a pair of men who have had your numbers, knowing 'zat next week, you two may very well be involved in the fight of your lives.
Gallas awaits the response.

Jasta found himself in a very rare position, at the mercy of another person. What was he to do? An irate Jasta responds in kind to Gallas' announcement for the following show.
So that's how it's going to be, eh "Boss". FINE. Absolutely perfect. All you've done is sealed the fate of that poor, hapless bastard. Tonight, whether he likes it on not, I'm going to take it upon myself of seeing that Browne and Nedermeyer are dealt with. And then whatever these idiots choose for our match next week, I'm going to make damn sure that it's the most humiliating night of Michael Xavier's meager, pathetic existence. When I'm done with him, he'll have no choice but to call it quits from embarrassment alone. Then, when I'm done with him, Browne can have the scraps I leave of his broken, mangled corpse.

"Say What You Will" picks up on the P.A. system, and out walks Nathan. He's sporting his ring gear and an XWA promotional t-shirt. A confused look is spread across his face. He makes his way down to ringside, giving high fives and such. He hops onto ringside, where he's handed a mic by ring staff. He hops over the top rope and heads to the center of the ring.
I was wondering the back lookin' for something to do when I heard my name called. Tag? Me and Dru? Sounds better than good. SOUNDS GREAT. I get another chance to take it to Mikey boy, while someone FINALLY shuts you up, Jasta. Mr. Gallas, you're idea is friggin' genius.

Michael comes out to the entrance stage with a mic already in his hand. A smirk was on his face. Almost a smile was showing. Another chance at Jasta? One final chance to show the entire world that he was at the level that he had claimed all this time? Oh hell yea!
Mr. Gallas, I always knew you were a fair man. I absolutely agree. The rubber match must take place. To prove between the two of us just who is the better man. And I know that when I beat Jasta next week, its going to eat away at his sole, knowing someone like myself, who he looks down at has beaten him yet again. Because he refuses to realize that someone like myself isn't capable at being at his level.
Yea, Jasta made me bleed at Soul Survivor. That doesn't matter. All that means is that Jasta gave him his best and I STILL defeated him. So what will you do now Jasta? I've taken the best that you have and came out on top. You think you're going to humiliate me? You think you're going to beat me so badly that I'll be forced to retire? You really are in a world all of your own with an ego that huge. The only person that tells me that I am going to retire is me. And its going to be a long, long time before that ever happens. You will literally have to kill me in order to stop me. And I know that you aren't exactly ready to do jail time or step out of the spot light to do that.
So bring all that you have Jasta, because I will take it all again and still come out on top. And after I've taken all that you have, I will come back and beat you down, bloody you then pin you, claiming my dominance over you.
As for this tag match, unlike Jasta, I have no qualms over who I am tagged with. You see Jasta, you forget that I am an accomplished tag wrestler. You forget that it was Me, Sylas and Brandon that eliminated your team. So if you can put your ego aside, we can team up and put the boots to Nathan and Dru. I give Nathan and Dru all the luck in the world, because against Jasta's skill and my tag team prowess, we're gonna be one hell of a team to beat. [/b][/center][/font] |

As expected, Dru makes his appearance into the fray. The crowd cheers as the future Hall Of Famer steps out into the stage. He walks down the ramp and joins the other men in the ring with mic in hand for his response to the proceedings, addressing Xavier and Jasta diirectly.
I hate to be the guy to break it to you, Mikey-Boy. But you've got about as much a chance of winning tonight as that Channelle girl has of find herself "A nice guy to settle down with". I mean, just look at the situation at hand for a moment. On one end of the ring, you've got a youngin' who you haven't been able to solve. Next to you, you've got a partner who would probably stab you in the back and leave you for dead if it wasn't for Mr. G here laying down the law. And then you've got me...nuff said. Now on a personal level, I could truly care less about what happens between you and Browne. That's your issue, and you two will obviously settle it one way or another. What's my interest in this match? Simple. In January, Bryan Jasta and I met in the finals of GWGP tournament. And I beat him. And the world's been looking for the rematch ever since. As far as I'm concerned, Bryan...all you need to do is name you time, and your place. And then there's you Mike. You represent something quite interesting tonight. A milestone if you will. The last Xavier brother I haven't beaten yet. So I get 2 gifts in one tonight. I get to kick your ass again, Bryan. And I get to kick YOUR ass, like I kicked your brothers' ass, Mike. Win-win situation.
Willy: You know, I hadn't even realized that until now. If Browne and Nedermeyer win, Dru will have the Xavier Trifecta. I don't think anyone's ever done that.
Tony: This just gets more interesting by the second.

Jasta in a bold move gets right into the grill of Nedermeyer.
My time? THREE weeks from tonight. My place? MADISON...SQUARE...GARDEN. You and me, INDEPENDENCE DAY 2008. After I handle Xavier next week...I handle YOU at the PPV.
A thunderous cheer explodes from the crowd, as one of the most anticipated matches in XWA history was pretty much a lock in the World's Most Famous Arena.

Dru stands with an ea to ear grin. He raises his mic and replies.
Sounds like we have us a fight then, don't we? But to sweeten the pot, just a lil' bit. How we're gonna do it is simple. Whatever match the fans pick for you and Xavier next week, that's the match that you and I are gonna have at ID08. So quite literally, you fate...is in THEIR hands, Jasta.

Jasta respond once again.
So you think. So...you...think.
He turns to Xavier and speaks a final retort.
Just try not to get in my damn way tonight. Play your role, and we'll win. It'll make me more likely to show your ass mercy next week. On second thought? You do what you do best, I'll do what I do best, and we'll see who comes out on the losing end. My guess is it's gonna be you. Call it a hunch. And then next week, lighting will strike twice...
He then turns back to Dru.
...and serve as a bleak glimpse into what's in store for you in Mew York City. I'm through with talking.
A visibly frustrated Jasta drops his mic. As he reaches the ropes, he turns back to the men in the ring and scowls. He steps through the ropes, drops down to the arena floor, and begins his walk back up the ramp.
