The camera fades to a man sitting crosslegged in the center of the squared circle. The shape is wearing a pair of black, white, and grey camo shorts, a pair of black and white kickpads, an US Army PT shirt, and his trademark black hoody. The spectre raises his hand to the hood covering his face and slowly pulls it away from his visage. The man billed The Franchise stares though the camera for a moment with a look that tells that a lot is on his mind. The Courier of Controversy licks his lips and runs his fingers through his medium colored hair.
"I know that many of you bucked tooth, imbred washouts are trying to figure out why the One Man Militia is wearing a shirt that is worn by the men and women who risk their lives to defend the freedoms we enjoy. Well... One of those freedoms you idiots seem to take forgranted is the freedom of speech. Another is the freedom to represent yourself however the fuck you want... Now the management of Eagle Vision Pro Wrestling wanted me to take this time to talk up their product... Maybe give some insight to my thoughts about one Chris Pyro... And possibly EVPW as a whole... Well my thoughts on The Dragon... AS well as my thoughts on EVPW come down to one word... And do you know what that word is?"
The One Man Militia stops for a moment, his nostrils flaring and his nose twitching at the thought.
"Evolution... I looked up the definition of that word in the dictionary the other day and this is what I found... Any process of formation or growth... Development... A product of such development... Something evolved... Change in the gene pool of a population from generation to generation by such processes as mutation, natural selection, and genetic drift. A process of gradual, peaceful, progressive change or development, as in social or economic structure or institutions... A motion incomplete in itself, but combining with coordinated motions to produce a single action, as in a machine..."
SM stops once again, taking a slow breath.
"I have studied up on my EVPW history and throughout every part of this company's history... It has gone through changes in management, owners, workers... They style of wrestling has changed... The company's outlook on the world has changed through the course of it's time on this earth... The prefered flavors of the management and fans have radically changed over the years... At one point guys like Ryan Hughes, Hyper Elf, Shawn Dreamer, Kingbear, Desperado, and so many others were the figure heads... That measuring stick that everyone else AIMED to be..."
Raye smirks and shakes his head.
"The fans looked at guys like Shawn Dreamer who is the past and in ways current tide of this company... I mean Shawn Dreamer in GHW and EVPW was the man every based that hardcore wrestling style towards... EVERYONE wanted to be like him, but look at Shawn now... Shawn is lil more than a broken down old man... And it is funny cuz Shawn is only ten years older than me... And he has been in this business only a few years longer than I have... But the fact of the matter Shawn fucked up his wrist and took a week off... I WAS ON MEDICAL LEAVE! I had glass in MY EYE... I still got challenged, accepted, and WON... Shawn maybe you should listen to your body OLD MAN and just stay gone..."
The Franchise licks his lips and spits before wiping the excess saliva from his face.
"Then you got the owners of EVPW Vladimir Tepes Strife and Kingbear... The God King and The Bear God... You see you two are legends in your own rights, but the fact of the matter is NO ONE wants to see your dried up, weathered faces anymore... I think maybe just maybe you two should stick to behind the scenes shit..."
The One Man Militia stops again and waves a finger.
"Now I'm sure you haven't forgotten EVPW's resident Undertaker... Oh I'm sorry he's more like EVPW's resident Gobbly Gooker... The so called Deadly and Dangerous One... Desperado... Mr. I'll make a random appearance here and a random appearance there... Show up make people say 'What the fuck' and leave... Congrats hardcore legend you are doing amazingly in that department... Why don't you take the same advice I gave Dreamer and kick rocks..."
Those baby blues reflect the light in their unique way as the arrogant smirk of Raye grows wider.
"What do all these people have in common? You see they each had a hand in the evolution of EVPW... But that is not the only thing... All of them are similiar in one other way... They are all people that EVPW as a company and the fan base NO LONGER needs... They are nothing more than over the hill, broken down jackasses who need to say out of the lime light and let the next generation do what they do best... You see... The men I listed and the few I discussed... Are obsolete... They are outdated... They are past their prime..."
SM nods as he finishes the last statement.
"Now that I talked about the nursing home rejects... Let me talk about myself and Chris Pyro... You see Chris and I are very much the same... Whether he or I want to admit to it openly or not... And like EVPW we both have evolved in our own rights... Chris went from a pyschotic ninja to a rogue ninja and from that to an angelic one... Then he went from that to a modern day samurai... Which is an amazing development if you think about it... But there is one problem with Chris's ideals... The WHOLE WORLD knows that Tom Cruise was the LAST SAMURAI... So Chris maybe you should consider a change in gimmick... NO on second thought... YOU SHOULD REALLY CHANGE YOUR GIMMICK!"
The Franchise chuckles a bit about what he said for a moment.
"Now let's talk about my evolution... I went from a lil kid watching his mother brutally murdered by his father to a foster home run away... I went from a run away to a carny... And I went from a carny to a wrestler on the indy scene... I went from Indy scene to Japan... From Japan to Mexico... From Mexico to Africa... I went from not knowing a damn thing to knowing EVERY trick in the book... I went from bottom of the barrell to BEST IN THE WORLD... Fourteen years in this business and the ONLY thing I have not done is hold a WORLD title... That is the ONLY accomplishment I have not had the honor of completing... Despite wars... Despite attempts of being held... Despite the fact that management doesn't seem to like me anywhere... I am the most watched... Most sought after... AND Most asked for WRESTLER that this business has ever had... And do you know why that is? It's because I can wrestle circles around my opponents... It's because I am untouchable on the microphone... Hell put a headset or a referee shirt on me and I bet my bottom dollar I would be the best at those as well..."
The One Man Militia licks his lips.
"You see Pyro and his wife are wrong... I am NOT barely even a man... I AM MORE MAN THAN ANYONE ELSE on THIS or ANY God damn roster... I competed in everything from regular singles to exploding casket death matches... When I said I have put my body through more Hell for the fans than anyone else can EVER imagine it was not pride or talk it was the TRUTH... BELIEVE it or not... ADMIT it or not... I am the ABSOLUTE best in the WORLD at whatever I chose to do... And if you don't want to see it... I there are only a couple things I can say and do..."
The man from chicago raises his fist toward the camera and then lifts up his middle finger.
"Beat me if you can... Survive... If I let you..."
All fades to black.
EOT
