HAIL TO THE CHIEF
(The scene opens up inside a stately looking office. There is a bookshelf along one wall and various plants
to make the room look more appeasing. The camera is focused on a large, oak desk which sits
in front of a large window with the curtains drawn. There is an expensive leather chair behind
the desk, with the back to the camera. The chair slowly turns around to reveal none
other than Scott "The Boy" Hellings. He is wearing a black suit with a white shirt and a blue
"Nielsen's Favourite Son" tie. As always, he has a bit of a smirk on his face.)
HELLINGS-
"Hello. My name is Scott Hellings, otherwise known as The Boy...but you all probably knew that
already. I am here today to make a very important announcement. This announcement will have
a huge impact on all my fans, all The Boy Scouts, especially those living in my homeland of Canada.
The recent NEW / RWW trip through Canada has made me realize that although I love Canada, it is not as great as it could, and should, be.
It made me feel as though something had to be done about it, like someone had to step up and make a change for Canada.
That is why, ladies and gentlemen, I would like to announce that I am officially running entering my name into
the race to be the new Prime Minister of Canada. I figured I'm already THE Canadian Legend in the ring, I might as well become
a legend in the life of politics as well!
I guess this all very life-altering, so I'll allow you a couple of moments to let this
momentous decision sink in."
(The Boy pauses and starts to look around the room, before checking his watch. The camera
cuts to show The Boy's nurse, Nurse Laurier roll her eyes. The camera cuts back to The Boy
who stops looking at his watch and continues his speech.)
HELLINGS-
"Now, obviously, with the election less than a month away it is far too late for me to run in
this current election. That is why I am announcing my candidacy for the NEXT federal election.
When will that be? Who knows? If another loss of confidence vote is passed shortly
after this election ends it could be within a year or two. Or if the winner of this election
goes the full term I'd say I'll likely be running in 2010. Regardless
of when I get my chance to become Canada's next, NEXT Prime Minister, we all know that I will win.
I know it, you know it, now the whole damn world knows it! Because, you see, that is what I do. I win.
More importantly, I make promises that I keep. I promised I would beat Mercy at Supremacy and that
is exactly what I did. I may have only just announced my candidacy, but already I have a flawless
record. I'm fairly certain the Canadian people would love to have a leader that does what he says he will do.
That is why I'm not just a champion in wrestling, but I'm also a champion for the people. Dang, that's a good one, I gotta
write that down."
(The Boy grabs a pen and a piece of paper and quickly writes down the slogan before continuing.)
HELLINGS-
"So why do this now? Well, I figure that by the time the election rolls around I will have dominated the wrestling industry
as only I can. I believe that by that time I'll have done all I can in the wrestling ring and I will want a new challenge to overcome.
Many of my wrestling opponents like to look to the past as a source of inspiration. Me? I choose to live for today, to focus on the now. That is why I am fond of
saying that The Now belongs to The Boy! But with me in charge, the future will belong to Canada as a whole."
(The Boy cups his hand to his ear as though he can hear something.)
HELLINGS-
"I can almost hear the doubters now. Well I know that some might scoff at the idea of a wrestler as political leader, even though there is a precedent for that sort
of thing down south. But I assure you they are only afraid because they know they can't beat me. After all, I am The Boy and that does mean
I am The Best! Let the naysayers doubt me, for are we not allowed the freedom of choice? And if you CHOOSE to bet against
a winner, that's fine. Just be prepared for disappointment. And I know what you are thinking: where does he stand on the issues?
Well, truthfully, I think I've got a little bit of time to get to that since the current election isn't over with yet. But I'll tell you one thing - we need a change.
We need to change the way things are done around here because it obviously isn't working. Take social assistance for example. Some people truly need it and that's perfectly
acceptable. But there are some who choose to abuse the system. These unsavoury characters exploit the system for their own personal, material gain; they simply cash the cheques
and spend the money on luxury items instead of purchasing necessities for their own children. What is all boils down to is greed and there needs to be a change in the way we think and act.
In fact, that brings me to a very important point - Nick Kelly."
(The Boy holds up a picture of Nick Kelly, wearing both the tag title and the Genesis title.)
HELLINGS-
"Does Nick Kelly really need two titles? I thought this was supposed to be the Christmas season and that it was better to give than to
receive? Clearly then Nick Kelly is one of those people that I speak of; he is greedy and consumed by his own decadence. That too needs to change. Basically, the way I see it is that
Nick Kelly and his partner, Jess Gaytes, are desperately trying to outdo each other in a bid to prove who is the better man. It is inevitable that as soon as a tag team becomes successful we all ask
ourselves 'which one is the better man? Who is carrying the team?' Well you can ask yourself those questions all you want, but do we really need to rush along to find the answer? I'm sure all would
be revealed in due time anyway, but lately it seems as though everyone needs to know who is better, Kelly or Gaytes, as soon as possible. Did curiosity not kill the cat? I believe it did, and I also believe
Nick Kelly does not have nine lives. It has been pretty self-evident since Gaytes actually beat Kelly in the Primetime Championship tournament at a recent BloodZone that Gaytes is, in fact, the better man. Yet Nick Kelly will not rest until he
can prove himself to the world. In the meantime, guys like me suffer. I should be getting title shots, but instead I'm facing someone like Mercy while Nick Kelly is allowed to become a double champion.
And now I finally get a shot against a champion and he REFUSES to put it on the line?! Is that equitable? Injustice is so prevalent in our society it has even infected the world of professional wrestling.
Reform is needed, changes MUST occur. This BloodZone, the (making quotation marks with his fingers) 'actor of change' will be me, The Boy."
(The Boy rips up the picture of Nick Kelly).
HELLINGS-
"I know how Nick Kelly will respond to all of this. Oh, he'll likely come out and insist that I'm not in his league or he'll crack some jokes about my name or something immature like that. Go ahead Kelly, I've heard it all before. He can talk a big game all
he wants, but I am going to beat him. I am the one and ONLY UBERstar and I am not to be taken lightly! See Nick Kelly may find that right now he's on top of the world looking down. He's taking that elevator right up to the penthouse suit. But what comes up must come down and the dizzying highs
can only be followed by the devastating lows. And it all begins this week. Who am I, you ask? I'm the guy that's been winning big money matches for years, back in the original RWW. I have earned my reputation across this globe as the The Marquee Player, The Franchise Savior, and The Number One Money Maker! And who is Nick
Kelly? He's just a guy who was able to enjoy some moderate success because his partner CARRIED him through it all!
I got where I am today on my ability; I didn't need anyone to hold my hand through it all. Maybe, just maybe, if you can convince Jess Gaytes to pull you through another one I suppose you might
walk away a winner once again. But if you ask me the bottom is about to drop out and you will be exposed for the fraud you truly are Nick Kelly."
(The Boy stands up, leaning over onto the desk.)
HELLINGS-
"I will bring about change and I will right wrongs at a national level, but I first must do it in
the wrestling ring. This week at BloodZone, I will do just that when I defeat and embarrass Nick Kelly.
Why? Because I want to, because I can!"
(The Boy walks off as the scene fades out to a black screen. A message in white text appears that notes, "The Preceding Message Was Paid for by Friends of
Scott Hellings," before finally fading to black.)
