**The scene begins outside of an old abandoned church where no one seems to have been in decades. Parts of the boards are falling apart on the church. There are no lights inside the church or even on the outside of it. As the camera begins to get closer a noise can be heard inside of the church. The camera begins to move forward towards the little doorway, where a door is missing from. A man can be seen sitting off in the corner of the room, or at least a shadow of the man. The man begins to speak continued to be hid by the shadows.**
Shadowy Figure: Tonight marks the dawn of a new age; yesterday marked the 10-year anniversary of the worst day of a lot of people’s lives. A lot of people lost their lives on the fateful day of 9-11-01 when out of the blue two planes drasticly struck the World Trade Center towers. The crashing of the planes then caught the building on fire, causing in turn the building to collapse totally, even falling on some unfortunate victims below.
**The shadow figure can be seen sitting in the same place rocking back and forth, over and over again. The figure is looking straight ahead, as if staring a hole through the center of the camera.**
Shadowy Figure: Every day there becomes a new hero but that day there were millions of heroes trying to save the victims inside and outside of the towers. In turn some people might ask just what is a hero? Well let me answer that one for you guys?
A hero thinks of others before they think of themselves,
A hero will die to protect.
A hero can be of any age, any color,
A hero can be man, woman or child.
A hero is courageous, loving and brave,
A hero will never complain.
A hero can be made in one act of compassion,
Or years of tender loving care.
Some hero’s are remembered,
Whilst many are left forgotten.
Hero’s are angels in disguise,
Saving precious innocent lives.
Every one of the firefighters, soldiers and police officers,
Are my heroes.
**The shadowy figure gets up off the ground, and leans against the wall face first, propping his head against the wall for a minute. While in the position he continues to speak.**
Shadowy Figure: In wrestling there are a lot of people that can be considered heroes, and then there are the ones that is totally not a hero. Well I don’t know which category I would be called in, yet I really don’t have a care, which category I am in. I do my job to entertain the fans, whether they appreciate it or not, that is another story. I have gotten the point as of late, that when I come out to the ring, there are half of the people cheering for me, while the other half boo’s me. So I think I would be a hero to those that cheer me, yet the quite opposite for the ones that boo me, I would like to send out a few thank you’s to those that stand behind me. For those of you that stand behind me, you will know that tonight your hero… Andrew Ryder. Will be facing off in what could be called a huge match up, the Main Event even. The King of the Ring Qualifying Battle Royal Match, where it will be Andrew Ryder vs. 13 other men, in one ring, all fighting to be the winner, all fighting for one single prize, to be qualified for the King of the Ring tournament.
**The shadowy figure, which is now known to be Andrew Ryder himself, begins to move back away from the wall slowly. Andrew, crouches low to the ground, as he begins to slowly move forward as if snaking himself towards the camera.**
Andrew Ryder: My upcoming opponents, Hawk Carmichael Jr., Patrick Carmichael, Mack Carmichael, Dirty Dogg, Zak Wake, Aiden Gage, Super Mario, Liu Gee Maeo, Akuma, War, Obliteration, David Shane and Jason Patricks himself. We all are fighting for one prize, as I have already stated. That prize guys is going to be mine, a lot of you are pretty knew here so you all do not know what to expect from a King of the Ring qualifying match, like the battle royal. You all have a huge awaking coming, but there are those that does know about this style of match, the first of those being one of the characters that has been around the longest, David Shane.
**Andrew Ryder stops in his place, still outside of the lighted area, as if he doesn’t want to come into the light, for a reason that only he himself knows.**
Andrew Ryder: David Shane, let me see here, you and I have had a past haven’t we? We have faced off a few times, just like me with your good buddy War. I have faced off against the both of you on multiple occasions, you seemed to have gotten the better of me on those occasions, don’t get me wrong though David you are a tough competitor, but that was before I had to face off against one of the toughest guys in the business, Drake DeMarco, the man stated he was going to knock me out of the business, and take me out, well Drake, you have failed on that task once again, I am here now to face off against these 13 other guys. Firstly David. David you should know that things have changed, after facing off against Drake, and losing to Drake, everything has changed, there have been some screw jobs involved in this company, but don’t get me wrong, you will not hear it come out of my mouth any longer. I will be looking to speak with my actions not my words. Don’t get me wrong I will still talk the trash, but hey, I will be backing up my words.
**Andrew Ryder steps away from where he is backing again into the corner, the shadowy figure bends down. Now completely out of the view of the camera as something is blocking its view.**
Andrew Ryder: I hope none of you guys are overlooking me in this match, and thinking that you are going to be getting an easy victory. Just like the rest of the guys that over looked me, you will be in for a real awakening, because I will inform you right now, I will be the one cashing in the victory tonight. Drake, David, War, and any one else that I have faced before, you guys know that you can’t keep me down right, no matter what you do to me, I continue to come back, each week, ready to fight. Fight I do, I come out ready to fight, and inflict damage on my opponents, I come out to win the match, but just like last week against Drake, that doesn’t always happen, but tonight I will be winning the match.
**Andrew Ryder moves comes straight up from the ground, holding something steadily in his hands. Whatever it is in his hands, even in the shadowy area is shining through the little light that is shown that direction.**
Andrew Ryder: The next guy is one of Steven Xavior’s “followers” or butt buddies, what the hell ever you want to call the dude, Aiden Gage. Aiden Gage, and Zak Wake, are used to teaming up in tag competition not fighting off in singles action, in order to gain something, such as a shot in the King of the Ring. Aiden let me tell you one thing, well make it two. How do you plan on beating this match, how do you plan on staying in the ring with 13 other men and coming out victorious? Aiden, you think people should be scared of you right? Just because you are some sort of guy that wants to take things out on your opponents, well let me tell you something serious, I am not one of those opponents that fear’s you. First off FEAR is only a four-letter word in my book, and I do know the exact meaning, but the meaning is irrelevant, because no matter what the meaning is, Fear isn’t in me. I fear nothing, being a police officer on the side, you can’t fear anything, otherwise you aren’t successful at your career, considering you stand a chance of having a gun take you out at any moment, or a knife, whichever the case maybe. Here in the wrestling world, what do I have to fear, some guy looking to beat me up, wow man, I am so freaking scared, ummm nah that sure isn’t the case.
**Andrew Ryder reaches over to the side where a podium is standing, as it has never been taken out of the church. He has a glass full of water sitting on the podium.**
Andrew Ryder: Do you realize we have a complete devil in attendance in tonight’s match. After all the name Akuma, in Japanese means devil or either demon, either way the result is the same, and complete devil. You know if you were to ask me the different between you and I Akuma, it would be this, me being a cop, on the outside and the inside, it makes me the good guy because I am the good police officer, not one of the bad ones. Whereas you Akuma, You spontaneous nature, where one minute you will be the good guy doing good things and then the next you will be doing things, that wouldn’t go with your original character, as if there was a complete transformation in you. It really makes you the bad guy in the end and good always outlasts evil. So even if we have a long match that seems equal it will not be in the end, good will overcome evil, Andrew Ryder will overcome Akuma. I will have to say that you have shown some of these other big mouth guys in the match a reality check, yet some of them have also shown you a reality check. Tonight though Akuma, it will be every man for himself, and Akuma, well man you know exactly how that goes don’t you, good luck.
**Andrew Ryder looks straight into the camera while taking a sip from the glass of water that he is holding in his hand. As he thinks about what he is about ready to say next.**
Andrew Ryder: The next person we have in the match is a pure simple-minded fellow that has nothing and never will have anything. The only thing you have, Dirty Dogg, is that girlfriend, fiancée or wife, what the hell ever she is. It really doesn’t matter what she is to you though, because Miss Puppies, isn’t involved in this Battle Royal, tonight Dirty, it is just the two of us, having a date, with 12 other men. Dirty Dogg, you are purely simple minded, therefore you are empty handed, just the same way you will be at the end of the match tonight, against me. How can a man with virtually no character begin to understand and respond to my moves?
**Andrew Ryder is holding the glass in his hand still, and his hand begins to squeeze inward towards the glass. The glass breaks into, as most of it falls to the ground. There are still a few pieces that is in the palm of his hand.**
Andrew Ryder: We now come to the other butt buddy of Steven Xavior, Zak Wake. Steven might have helped you out when you were in that asylum Zak but don’t think that he did it for the good of you, only reason he got you out of there was the fact he thought he could transform you into a monster, and I guess it worked. You are a true monster in the business; tonight you are going to be going up against another monster, not only a monster but also a “Monster Killer”. Tonight you are going to go down quick, you are going to lose. It really doesn’t matter how crazy you think you are, or even that you are. I will take you down just the same, as I will these other guys in the match, and in the business.
**Andrew Ryder drops the rest of the glass that he is holding in his hands, and shakes his hand. As Andrew shakes his hand he shakes off the glass pieces that is stuck on his hands, along with a few drops of blood that drips from his hands.**
Andrew Ryder: Next we have the three brothers in the match, Hawk, Patrick and Mack Carmichael… guys you and I used to be friends weren’t we. When I decided to change my attitude on everything, Mack, you and I got into it, and since then I really don’t know what we are, and I am sure the same goes for the three of you. Well let me tell you something guys, I really don’t care what the three of you think at all, it goes like this. Hawk I have nothing against you, or your brothers, yet it seems you have something against me, because when I decided to change everything about me, the way I viewed things on top of everything else you decided to change, and pull away from me. Don’t get me wrong though guys, I enjoyed every minute of getting Mack all hot and bothered, as if I was about to fight him, and then walking away from him.
**Andrew Ryder begins to walk forward stepping directly into the light that is shining in, as he does so he reaches up with his bleeding hand. He wipes his hand across his chest, for a moment, leaving a trail of blood across his chest. Before winking into the camera, and looking straight into it.**
Andrew Ryder: Guys look at it this way, what would you do if you were in my shoes, yet it doesn’t matter to me at all. How do you plan on gaining an advantage in the match tonight, do you plan on ganging up on the rest of us, I really hope you do not decide to gang up, because that would really ruin the way of the match. Look at it this way, it is every man for himself, so with you guys teaming it would ruin the match, for everyone, yet it would be the perfect strategy for one of the three of you to get the advantage, yet I know for a fact that you guys aren’t going to become victorious tonight, in the match. How do you think that a group of inbreeds is going to become victorious in a match with a bunch of other guys in the match.
**Andrew Ryder walks straight out of the church with the camera following behind him, he never looks back at the camera but stops in his tracks after a moment.**
Andrew Ryder: Now we have a man that I have had a few matches against as of late, a seemingly new guy here to the business. Jason this is your first King of the Ring qualifying match, so that really already puts you at a disadvantage, because you do not know what to do, you don’t know how to handle many other guys in the ring at one time, trying to throw your opponents out of the ring, and to knock everyone else away from the group. Jason Patricks, you are going to lose this match because you don’t have the experience that some of the rest of us have, also you are going to lose because of how you are. You are nothing more then a looser Jason, what have you accomplished in your career so far. Really nothing at all, you have had chances to pick up huge victories but nothing that you have been able to surpass, that is not going to change tonight either, tonight the results are going to be the same, you are going to go down in the record books as loosing to Andrew Ryder himself.
**Andrew Ryder looks around him at all the scenery surround the old abandoned church, and shakes his head, as the church is pretty much back away from the road. Surrounded by a little bit of wooded area.**
Andrew Ryder: We have a man that is one half of the tag team champions, the very man that calls himself after a cartoon character Super Mario. Super Mario, you are centered as a tag team competitor; so tonight you are by yourself in the ring. Don’t get me wrong your tag team partner, is also in the match, yet this isn’t tag team action, what are the two of you going to do if it was too come down to the two of you, you can’t honestly tell me that either one of you would be willing to let the other have the win. Especially when neither of you can fully communicate with the other, without that little female translator of you all’s. I really don’t think she tells you the truth of what Liu Gee says sometimes in the first place, but hey what do I know about the language. Yet in all reality Super Mario, no one, and I mean no one compares to “The Killer” Andrew Ryder in determination. The determination is why I will win tonight, because I want this win, much more then the rest of you involved, not just to get a win, but to prove myself worthy of being involved in the King of the Ring.
**Andrew Ryder begins to walk away from the church shaking his head as he does so. Andrew begins to walk down the road, heading in the direction of the arena.**
Andrew Ryder: Next we have a man by the name of Obliteration, what in the world kind of name is that anyway? I really don’t know, but the thing I do know is that you are mean spirited. Obliteration, you are mad at the whole world because of your childhood. It is about time for you to grow up and be a man, and make good in this world. You have not been a victim to everybody yet he dislikes everybody. Obliteration you damn sure need an Andrew Ryder ass whooping. You are looking for revenge for what previously happened to you in your life, right? Well let me tell you something Obliteration that revenge isn’t going to come at the hands of Andrew Ryder himself. You aren’t going to be beating me or anyone else in the match, or especially me. Also Obliteration, from what I have seen of you so far you act as if you really don’t want to be here, or as if you are being forced to wrestle here in the PWSI, well let me tell you something. If you feel like you don’t want to be here, you can get the F out. We sure as hell don’t want anyone that doesn’t want to be here, if you are just here because it is the path that was laid out for you, as you have said. You also think that you are some big bad superstar that stands in the way of everyone else getting what they want. You think you are going to take me out for good don’t you? Like I am just some stepping stone in the way, even Drake DeMarco himself couldn’t keep me down, so how in the blue hell do you think that you are going to do it?
**As Andrew Ryder had left his car in the arena parking lot and took a run, down the road, he now has to walk towards the arena again. After a moment he picks up his pace and instead of walking he is running.**
Andrew Ryder: We are at the other cartoon named character of Liu Gee, the man can’t even speak English, and he is going for a chance at being involved in the King of the Ring. That really doesn’t go together if you ask me, have you ever seen a king that couldn’t speak the language of the city he was King of? Umm I haven’t. Even though the PWSI, isn’t a city in general, it still holds the same principles, the tournament is for some of the best wrestlers in the industry, how do you fare up against the rest of the guys Liu Gee? You and Mario have dominated the tag team division I will hand you that, but how do you guys plan on defeating the rest of us? Are you hoping to work together for most of the match then break apart when it really counts? Well what if one or both of you gets knocked out of the match directly right away, if either of you 2 do get knocked out first, I would have to bet it would be Mario.
**Andrew Ryder comes running into the parking lot of the arena, to where his car is parked in the back where all of the superstars park. Andrew Ryder then gets up to the door leading into the arena and opens it heading inside.**
Andrew Ryder: Now we come to another man that I have had a good past with, War you and I have faced off against each other several times already. I am glad to see that you are back though, hopefully you aren’t the psycho version of yourself that you were before you left. As I stated when you left there can only be one psycho in the yard, and that one is I. War, it is just that, when you were in your rehab, you were doing everything in your powers in order to get out of that place. Even your very own friend, came to your assistance and got you out of there. I hope that you truly understand just what David Shane did for you, and tonight you both are in this match. So really what does that mean for the two of you? Does that mean that you two are going to fight off against each other, like you have many times before, or does it mean that you are going to partner up trying to take everyone else out? Secondly War, if no one has heard from you since, how do we honestly know that you are going to show up for this match, I know you though War. I know how you are, you thrive for this business, and so you will show up. Lately you haven’t been able to do anything on your own without using some kind of weapon against whom ever you are around, so how do you think you are going to win tonight War? Obviously you are going to lose the match if you even bother to show, because how will you fare in the ring with 13 other guys, after just getting out of rehab, along with other things that you have had to deal with while you were gone. Every one of the other guys in this match has been the battles leading up to a War, and tonight War, I will be the victor in the War.
**Andrew Ryder walks down the hallway with a shirt in his hand as he looks as if he is about ready to put the shirt on but instead thinks better of it. The blood that he had wiped on his chest before can still be seen on his chest; it is now a little smeared from the sweat, from him running. Andrew Ryder looks down at his hand that he had cut with the broken glass, the camera zooms into the hand. It has started to heal over a slight bit, as it is now stopped bleeding, he continues to look at his hand for a moment. He then looks straight into the camera with an evil smile on his face, before throwing his head back in the air, and letting out a huge howl sounding laugh.**
