As EVPW's Wednesday Night Genesis begins, Vladimir Strife stands in the middle of the ring, dressed in a black suit. Sitting behind him is a coffin, laying there without a care.
"As many of you may know... I made a promise recently. That promise being to send a message to GHW... a strong message.. I'm here to deliver that message tonight. As you may or may not have noticed... there is a coffin sitting behind me..."
Vladimir slowly looks back to the coffin, not taking his eyes off it as he turns towards it.
"You see... I was going to do a funeral tonight for GHW... but there's only one problem.."
Vladimir kicks the coffin hard, knocking it over. The lid pops open and out flies a pillow and some lining of the casket. Vlad scratches his head perplexedly.
"You see... GHW isn't dead."
Vladimir continues to scratch his head, having it tilted to the side as he looks at the empty casket almost in awe.
"See, I thought it was... but I was wrong. GHW has a foot placed WELL into the grave, no doubt... but that other foot is planted in the dirt and clinging tightly to life."
Vladimir rubs his chin as though in heavy thought and continues to stare down the oak box.
"GHW is under attack... by a change in the air... a devastating force that cripples it day in and day out and threatens to crush it in it's power... It's a damned shame."
Vlad looks up from the coffin to the crowd and begins to unbutton his suit.
"I'm hear to deliver a message though, right? The message is simple... Vladimir Strife is here to do EVERYTHING that he can.... to fight tooth and nail, blood and sweat, tears and fears..."
Vladimir rips off the suit now to reveal that he is wearing a black shirt with the letters "GHW" printed across it.
"To save GHW."
The fans begin to boo Vladimir Strife now, many shocked at what they are hearing.
"That's right, bitches... you heard me loud and fucking clear. I'm here to save GHW! I'm going to save one of the greatest companies this world has ever seen from one of the cruelest... sickest... demonic... diseases... I've seen."
A cup of beer slams across Vlad's head, splattering it's contents across his face and hair, wetting it down.
"Bitch all you want... My mind is made up. Even if they reject me, even if I AM banned from any arena a GHW event is being held at... I WILL save GHW.."
The fans begin to scream in unison now "YOU SOLD OUT! YOU SOLD OUT! YOU SOLD OUT!". Vladimir grins and shakes his head.
"...I will save GHW... from itself."
The fans go silent, confused once more by Vladimir's words and actions.
"You see... I love GHW... I REALLY do! It's easily one of the greatest federations this world has EVER... and I mean EVER... seen."
"But as a wise man once said... It is better to burn out than to fade away. Day by day, GHW fades away... a mere shadow of what it once was... the battlegrounds of the greatest stars to ever rise to the top... the cream of the crop as far as competition went.. We truly were the greatest. We were Gods!"
Vladimir looks to the mat and then slowly back to the crowd, sadistic intentions in his eyes.
"But the Gods have left.. and only heretics are left. GHW is NOTHING compared to what it was... it never will be again what it once was.."
"So out of compassion... out of mercy... out of LOVE.. I will snuff the flames of that legacy to preserve it's purity. I'll not stand idly by and watch as the company I loved.. the company I gave my heart, blood, and soul to... to see it reduced to this. To a stagnant, watered down version of what it was... to a pissed on afterthought!"
Vladimir begins to pace back and forth, his mind racing again.
"I will kick out the last leg of GHW and bury it once and for all! But the simple question is this... how?"
Vlad rubs his chin and paces, thinking on the idea.
"What about an open challenge... whenever, whereever... be it From the Ashes or Red, White and Bruised... to ANY GHW supporter who has the balls to take me up on it?"
Vladimir grins again as he is pacing.
"I like it... no, I love it! See, it's simple... I offer GHW the chance to prove that they are still the best... an offer to make their statement here and now."
Vladimir pulls his hair back and looks into the camera as it gets close up.
"You see.. I know you watch EVPW.. you like to scout the competition. That's perfectly fine. I know several stars here are still in GHW and I know how word of mouth spreads... believe me, I know. So I know that GHW will know of this challenge. So, as I see it... you have 2 options."
Vlad stands tall and cracks his neck, rolling his eyes at the sensation.
"Either ignore my words or refuse to fight me and show the world what you're REALLY made of... prove to them that you don't have the balls to face me and that you're scared... And silently bow down to a new age.. OR!"
"Fight me.. and show the world that you aren't afraid. Yes, I will destroy you... yes, I will hurt you... yes, I will prove once and for all that I am truly THE greatest wrestler past, present and future and show the world that EVPW is the best.. But it's simple... are you cowards... or are you losers? The ball's in your court now. And to be honest... I think you're fucked. I don't believe GHW has a single piece of talent that can stand toe to toe with Vladimir Strife and survive... let alone win.."
Vladimir jumps on the ropes, one arm pushing down the top rope as he gets into the cameraman's face.
"So come on! MAKE MY DAY! PROVE ME WRONG!!!!"
Vladimir laughs as he steps back off and paces about the ring, turning at last to the camera once more and his reactions getting back to a serious tone.
"So... to GHW... to any star out there from GHW or ANY company for that matter that thinks they can top EVPW... I've got one simple thing to say to you.."
Vladimir clears his throat, making sure to get his message through loud and clear.
"Love me..."
Vladimir takes a few steps closer and tilts his head.
"Hate me...."
A few more steps and Vladimir is closed in on the camera, his eyes wide, menacing and emcompassing the screen.
"FUCK YOU!"
Vladimir spikes the microphone down as EVPW's WNG goes to it's first commercial.
