“Confidence is the only way to win in life.”
-D. Rankey
Confidence. It is essential to succeed in anything. Without it, nothing can be achieved. Ability gets a person nowhere if they can’t believe in themselves. Those who have that strong combination of confidence and ability achieve great things. They may win awards, and in the case of professional wrestling, they win titles.
The scene opens with an image of a title. A nameplate reads “Thunder” just below the words “WCF People’s Champion”. It sits on an oak table with glass in the middle instead of wood. The only other thing in view is a half empty glass of red wine. Suddenly, a man’s hand comes into a view and pulls the glass away. Moments later, the glass is placed back on the table, but this time it is empty. A woman’s hand reaches into view and picks up the title shortly thereafter. The camera pans back to reveal that it is the maid who grabbed the title. Thunder sits on the leather couch that is on the opposite side of the table. The maid has a rag in her hand and is polishing the belt. She finishes and hands it to Thunder.
Is that good enough?
Thunder stares at the title with a look of dissatisfaction.
I can’t see my face in it. I told you it wouldn’t be good enough until I could see my reflection. Get back to work.
He throws the belt at the maid, who barely can keep it from falling out of her hands. In the process, she drops the rag. Knowing what her orders are, she quickly picks it up and gets back to work. Thunder pulls out his cell phone, but it is unclear what exactly he is doing. Soon enough, the maid finishes and hands the belt back to Thunder. He looks again, and this time appears satisfied.
That’ll do. But you’re going to improve quickly because I’ll be bringing the TV Title home soon.
You’ve got a TV Title match?
Yeah, against Creeping Death with a whole bunch of other losers thrown in.
Creeping Death is pretty tough from what I’ve seen. I wouldn’t be so certain of a win.
Thunder rises from the couch in anger.
What, are you somehow a wrestling expert?
The maid backs off slightly.
I was just saying that Creeping Death might be hard for you to beat.
He is now in a fit of rage. Thunder loosens his tie and then throws it down on the couch. He picks up the People’s Title and holds it up as he screams.
Look at this. I’m the goddamn People’s Champion. I didn’t win this title by sheer luck. I won it because I’m a completely different league from everybody they’ve thrown at me. And now I’m going to do it on an even bigger level by winning the Television Title. You obviously have no idea what you’re talking about because even the idiot WCF fans must know that this match is a cakewalk. Just look at who’s in it.
There’s David Alastair. What a joke he is. He gets three shots at my People’s Title, and what does he do? He blows the opportunity. So of course, instead of being sent down the card like he deserves to, he’s getting another chance at winning gold in WCF. Never has anyone gotten so many chances and still failed each time. Alastair couldn’t beat me even if I was blindfolded, so he’s not a factor at all.
A.J. Storm, David Ortega, and The Pac are three guys that I, quite frankly, know very little about. That’s only because these three have not come anywhere near to proving themselves. All I know is Storm and Ortega couldn’t win the Tag Titles, so now they think they can give the singles division a shot. That’s a poor, poor move. As long as I’m in WCF, they won’t get anywhere, so they might as well chase the tag belts once again.
And last, but certainly not least, is the man you think I can’t beat, Creeping Death. Let’s run down his WCF accomplishments: World Champion, Hardcore Champion, Tag Team Champion, and Television Champion. He’s done just about everything possible in WCF, and he can become World Champion yet again at Revenge.
There’s no doubt that few men in WCF history have accomplished as much as Creeping Death has. But that doesn’t phase me in the least bit. Creeping Death may have done many great things in the past, but what you and many others don’t realize is that it’s not what your past is, but what the future holds. All those titles Creeping Death won in the past doesn’t mean jack shit. If he’s not willing to step out of the spotlight then I’m going to push him out. His time has come and gone, and it’s time for the future of WCF to take over. Don’t call it arrogance, it’s confidence. I’m confident that I’m going to walk out of Slam the Television Champion. So what do you think now, wrestling expert?
You will win.
Correct.
The sound of a car horn is heard outside.
I guess the limo’s here.
Yeah, I better get going.
Thunder doesn’t move an inch, he is clearly irritated as he waits for something.
What is wrong with you? Open the door!
The maid flashes him and opens the door. Thunder leaves as the scene fades.
