Smith sits at a desk, most likely in an office somewhere in Washington DC, as the backdrop is the Capital Building behind the window. To the right of the screen, sitting behind him is the American flag, making this vignette look much like a State Of The Union address.
Hello America. I'm John Smith. THE John Smith. For years, professional wrestling has been...well...politics as usual. Company after company claiming to be the best product out there, and the wrestlers within doing even worse to make themselves seem as if they are a superior product.
Young men walking around spewing rhetoric that has as much charm as grade school. Some of them might as well still BE in grade school. It's an undermining of your intelligence the very fact that these individuals are allowed to be seen on television at all.
What's worse? The fact that you buy into this ridiculousness. One day, someone says something "witty", next day you're wearing it on a T-Shirt. The profession of wrestling has been denigrated and desecrated, by not mass marketing...not idiotic, over-opinionated "smarks", but by the wrestlers themselves. These "competitors" are nothing more than...pageant contestants, pandering for whatever kind of reaction they can get from you, the American People.
Well, those days are no more, for now you have a man who you can stand behind. A man who you can believe in. A man who's not about talk, but action. A self-made man who's built his reputation by the sweat of his brow. A true man of integrity, and in 2011, I will inject integrity back into this great sport.
I invite you to take part in the XWA's "Tribute To The Troops" special, because I'll be there...and in front of the greatest fighting force in the history of mankind, you will witness the greatest professional wrestler in the history of mankind. The man who will bring forth a change that you can truly believe in, not only to the XWA, but to the entire wrestling industry.
Why? Simply put...because I can.
Yes.
I.
Can.
