Chris Lionheart pulls up to the arena, and steps out of his car. As soon as he steps inside the arena he is approached for a backstage interview.
Fabiola: Well Chris Lionheart, how do you feel about losing your return match against MG?
You know... I never said I was going to beat him. I no longer play that over confident game. If you loose, you just look stupid and give others more cannon fodder to use against you the next night. The thing I don't like is when people say they trounced their opposition, when in reality it was a more balanced fight. Yeah, MG got the win, but it was still a good fight and I got my shots in. Same as it was with Sledge, same as it was last year with Prime. But with that being said, MG has really stepped up his game since this time last year, thankfully for everyone else. I'd like to face him again sometime.
So everyone want to know what's with your reemergence here in XWA. Was the PPV a oneshot appearence kind of deal, or are you back for an extended period of time?
As you know, there's only one person who can beat me, and that's myself. People keep wondering why Chris Linoheart can be a World Champion, and also absent from a company for months on end. How he can lead people to such success, but still end up standing alone. How he can be a legend, and have 'fallen' so far in recent times. Maybe it has something to do with this brain disease I have, the higher brain pattern that fluctuates oh-so-precariously in between sane and non-sane, safe and destructive, happy and sad, normal and paranoid... After my recent attacks backstage which put me in the hospital, it finally got diagnosed. I've got no idea how long it's been there, but since those attacks I've had three brain heamorages. Yet some how, even with a third of my brain 'shut down', this brain frequency 'pattern' is still radically high, something's not right, and I actually kinda like it. I like slipping in and out of control, it excites me.
After those words of encouragement from Rachel Dawset, and the disrespect shown unto me by MG, I thought it was only fitting for me to come back. I aim to come back and bring with me a little bit of that old respect and tradition, because in the end that's what it's all about. I came here tonight looking for some in-ring action. I could have gotten a muscle monster like Dru. I could have gotten a pure wrestler like Kayn. It didn't matter to me. I might not hold a title belt right now, but I have always been a fighting champion.
Now Lionheart, everyone knows that you've been to the highest highs, and suffered some of the lowest lows. But one thing that's for certain is that these fans always seem to chant 'Lionheart'. You have a following, weather you're a 'good guy' or a 'bad guy'. Just to be clear, you're saying that yes, you're going to be a regular on TakeDown or OverDrive, from now on?
I will be a regular XWA combatant. And believe me, anyone who is anyone will be too. They've signed their contract. If they don't show up for work, they must know that they're a loser 'in here'. I'll be there, I'm a legend.
Do you want another shot at MG, or a title holder in XWA?
Those are your words, Fabiola, not mine. I could go after MG, I could stick my head in on a title belt feud, but why don't I see if anyone back there wants to come to me...
