Voice~
Close your eyes and open your mind. Feel it, feel the movement of the world around you.
The breeze around you comes to a screeching hault. The darkness is broken as an arena is lit up.
Voice~
Remember to see with all of your senses. If you lose sight, will you still be able to feel everything, will things still smell and taste the same? Will the foot steps of another man still echo off of the ground. Be versitile and have control through all senses and trust them.
A wrestling ring appears in the middle of the arena.
Voice~
Can you still do it? Can you rise to the occassion one more time? Can you carry a card and a main event?
Barricades and chairs fill the floor surrounding the ring.
Voice~
Ask yourself to stand up. Tell yourself you can be the greatest of all time. Take back what you lost, your respect. Retire cause there is a war. Come back to retire again because you are tired of it all? So you want it again?
Pyrotechnics shoot off and the arena is packed full of people.
Voice~
Every seat in the arena is taken. You hear your name. You hear the cheers and chants. The thunderous stomping and the hands clapping. The Champion of Champions has to take back his place as The One.
The arena echos then everything becomes dark, but then quickly light again. He sits ringside watching himself in the ring.
Voice~
Can he beat him? Can the one that goes by Szaban break a piece of Glass. He can't do it can he?
The match continues as he remains ringside watching himself take a beating. The crowd cheers and chants his name as he tries to find a way to come back
Voice~
Come on champ it's time to do it. It's time to see what is really left. Twelve years in wrestling does take a tool on some people but now is your toughest battle yet, overcoming yourself.
The match has reached it's climax as he watches himself get hoisted up on another mans shoulders for what would seem to be a Bostard Drop
Voice~
See the truth. You can be beaten, but will you let it happen? The choice is yours The choice has been yours.

..WAKE UP...

...THREE HOURS LATER...
"XVI PRESENTS THE AMERICAN DREAM!!!" scolls on the bright neon sign outside of the Los Angeles Staples Center. The sun is still up as it edges closer and closer to the horizon over the California skyline. The scene outside of the arena is a chaotic one as hundreds and thousands of people are arriving to witness what has been promised to be the XVI's most impressive show to date.
Inside the arena people are spending their money at the vendors that line the circled hallways, buying T-shirts, other paraphernalia associated with the stars and company of Xtreme Vicious Intent.
Ringside has the energy that it always carries. David and Ed have made their way to their commentators table and have plugged in their mics. They take their seats as they start to watch the arena fill to capacity.
David~
Oh Yes Edit is finally here!
Ed~
Yes sir David, tonight is finally the night for the biggest spectical in sports entertainment XVI Professional Wrestling. Not only is there going to be a great showing for the Pay per view card, but the hall of fame is going to be unvieled with new entries.
David~
Tonight is going to be explosive and only a fool would miss this historic night. Serafin will be in action to night, seperately of course for their respective title matches.
Pig Vomit is going to try to do something they have not done in a long time by recapturing the Tag Team Titles, and of course the Don Makaveli will face off one on one with the ledgendary eXecutionor.
Ed~
And there is even more than that. Matthew Szaban made his return last week defeating David Calaz and setting up his match here tonight in which he earned the right to be in over a month ago when he finished off possibly the greatest being to ever set foot in a wrestling ring Jihad Sullivan.
Will tonight be the first time that Jordan and Szaban are given the chance to have a match without being inturupted. Technically both of their matches ended in draws; however Makaveli truly screwed Szaban over in the first match after the draw was announced he had the match restarted and he banned all of Szaban's cohorts from ringside. And that still is not the entire story seeing how Szaban was also ordered to have one arm tied behind his back.
David~
Like we said before tonight is slam packed with action and you can plan on the entire night being well worth the ticket of admission
The seats are finally filled. The stage hands are doing tiny adjustments preparing all pryotechnics and making sure they have everyones entrance music cued. Fans are waving their foam fingers, signs and t-shirts in the excitement of being at an XVI live event.
Food and drink gets spilled as the crowd gets pumped up. Secruity knows that it is time to line up along the ringside barricade and prepare for the events of the night that are a mere few hours away.
Ed~
There is no doubt about it tonight we have set an attendance record and we are taking this as no surprise, everyone wants to be apart of history cause that is always what happens when you experience this type of event, the level of emotion and all the dramatic elements always read out to say.
David~
This is the night. This is the night that everything great is going to happen. That is the reaction that people have when they are calling ticketmaster, or waiting in line the day before at the box office. People just know that when it is time for the show to begin, it is nothing short of exceptional.
crowd can be heard growing louder and louder as the lights dim. A blue auroa fills the room as the white strobe lights flash rhymatically to "Oh Hell Yeah" by the H-BlockX. The crowd explodes as they hear this old, yet favorable entrance song of the former world champion.
People think they know me
say i'm on a little tight
tell me i go looking for trouble
that im always ready for a fight
but im just an easy going guy
not crosing any line
i'm a caring individual
most all time
most all time?
try alot of the time
it's just that.. it's just that.. it's just that
OH HELL YEAH!!!
The crowd remembers this famous longtime entrance as the song explodes throughout the arena, a video of Szaban and every championship match he has competed in, "Szaban" cheers engulf the entire arena as the video continues to play showing people getting "Dropped" names like Jihad, Corpse, Halo, Johnny Mental, Dan Da Man, Jordan Turtle, RkO, G-Dawg, and many many more wrestlers as the song plays through.
Ed~
I am a little shocked by that. I mean I do not know if that was intentinal or if one of the stage hands hit a button on accident but really if it was intentional then Szaban is back.
David~
What are you talking about Ed? Of course Szaban is back we all witnessed him make quick work of Calaz last week.
Ed~
No David you are not understanding what that song means. Think about it Davey boy. That song was Szaban's first entrance song when he first became World Champion, and everytime that he truly makes a return to the ring it is that song that makes the path for him.
That song means that he is not back to take up a roster spot, that song does not mean that he is going to just walk around in lalaville. That song means that Szaban is back. And it means that someone is going to get dropped.
David~
Ohhh
::PRE PPV PROMOS::

Kaos
Pig Vomit
::We return once again::
Not the arena but a dark dark room that is very dimly lit. What seems like a screen window with a wooden screen is barely made out but then the dark room starts to be seen as a confessional.
Man~
Forgive me father for I have sinned.
Father~
How long has it been since your last confession and what are you here to confess?
Man~
Father it has been almost ten years since my last confession. And I have much to confess.
Father~
Ten years is a long time my son.
Man~
Yes father it is. I have been with many women, some have been married. I have lied, cheaten, and stole. I have conveted and I have lusted. Father I am not a pure soul.
Father~
Oh my son it has been a troublesome time for you then. I am going to ask you if it has been ten years, why do you come to him all of a sudden.
The man pauses and breathes deeply. After the long exhale the man raises his head to look through the screen
Man~
Father I have a question about angels.
The father gives a slight chuckle
Father~
Angels my son? And what about angels has taken you to this holy house today?
Man~
You see father last week I beat another man. I beat a man who claims to be a form of angel and it troubles me.
Father~
Well you beat the man who claims to have the gift of an angel is that the true reason for your coming here today. Forgiveness for striking down an angel?
Man~
No Father, it is not forgiveness for that. I want to know, he has a friend, partner or a brother rather that claims to be the ultimate and perfect angel. Father how do I beat a man like that? An angel like that?
The Father has paused now he is actually thinking about this, rather than laughing at the unclean man before him.
Father~
A Serafin my son?
the man has been holding his head down but now in a moment of shock lifts his head up to the father that used the word he did not want to.
Man~
Yes Father. Both men claim to be a Serafin, but this next one claims to be THE SERAFIN. Perfect and the best.
The Father ponders at this because of how familiar it sounds the Father did not want it to be that simple to be the answer he is about to give.
Father~
My son it was Isaiah and Ezekiel that spoke about this most clearly. In the time of true Serafins one was named Lucifer and he was just as you said Perfect and the best. But because of this he was cast down to earth and into the abyss.
Man~
Father are you telling me that the man I speak of may be Lucifer?
Father~
My son I am telling you that what you have told to me sounds a lot like that which was written. So now I say to you if it is indeed true that he claims to be perfect and the best he can not be an angel, because angels are no better than the one beside them. But a minion can grow and grow, so my son leave here cleansed and may the lord be with you.
Man~
And also with you. Thank you father.
The man gets up and bolts out of the confessional.
