[Venom, Karnage and Rampage are all sitting around backstage in their locker room. They appear to be drinking beer. The label on the bottle says Molson Canadian. Venom puts his bottle down and gets up.]
Karnage - Where did you get this from? It's the best beer I've ever had?
Rampage - Ya, this shit is great!
Venom - I told you it was good. That's the way it's brewed back home in Canada. I had to smuggle it over the border. I'm glad you guys like it.
Karnage - Where are you going?
Venom - I have to go down to the ring. It's my scheduled time to address the crowd about my match against Stonehart.
Karnage - Oh ya that's right. Later.
Rampage - Later.
Venom - Save some of that beer for me will ya?
Rampage - No problem.
[Venom grabs his TNT United States Championship, walks out the door and makes his way down the hall towards the entrance way.]
[The camera follows him as he waits just behind the curtain for his music to hit. Dyer's Eve by Metallica hits the speakers. The crowd can be heard cheering backstage. The arena goes black, and the red spot light is on the entrance as Venom makes his way through the curtain and on to the ramp. Venom stops on the ramp and stairs out at the sold out TNT crowd. He then begins to make his way down the ramp and towards the ring.]
[Venom climbs up the stairs and through the ropes into the ring. He walks across the ring and the ring announcer hands Venom the microphone. Venom is about to address the audience.]
Well, I must say that is feels really good to finally be backed up by some competent people finally here in TNT. I have so far in my short career wrestling here in TNT made quite an impact. I can't believe it's only been one month and a half I have been wrestling. Already I have had a short, actually a better word would be brief reign as the TNT Wrestling Hardcore Champion. And now I have gained the TNT Wrestling United States Championship after winning the Survival of the Fittest Tournament. Yes, I must say that success has so far definitely gone my way.
As for last Sunday on Mayhem, I had a handicap match against The Seekers. Well, I once again showed that my talent, and my skill was not only too much for one wrestler, but for two. I beat both of those two pieces of trash to a bloody pulp. They were battered and bruised like never before. Skywarp, Starscream, I would just like to apologize for beating the living hell out of both of you so bad.
Now, as for this Sunday on Mayhem, I have quite a fierce competitor to deal with. This man is a man that can compete with anyone here in TNT. Even when it looks like the chips are down, he still manages to sneak out a victory. This man. is Stonehart. I will be the first to admit that you are a well trained individual. You are one of the most dominant wrestlers out there. Simply hearing your name sends chills down the spines of any competitor that has to face you, but one. That one Stonehart, would be mine, Venom. You see Stonehart, I fear no one. Not even a man as sadistic and as malicious as yourself. You are now number one on my hit list.
So, Stonehart, you were wondering where I have been, why I have not spoken, I have not defended, or given an open challenge to anyone. Well, the answer is simple really, I needed a rest. That tournament, and then the handicap match really took a lot out of me. I needed a break from wrestling, so I could clear my mind, and rest my beaten down body. Right now, my body is nearly healed, and my mind is set on one thing, that would be you. Stonehart, that would be entering this very ring as the TNT United States Champion, and leaving the same way, the United States Champion.
You also asked another question that is worthy of answer, why join with Karnage and Rampage? You are absolutely right, we were at each others throats for the longest time not to long ago. Well, we put our differences beside. You see, we competed, and earned each others respect. We know that we are the three toughest competitors that we have to compete with here in TNT. So, if we align together, we will be unstoppable. We will rule TNT, and there is nothing that can stop us, not even you.
You also seem to think that I don't fit in, that I just wanted a friend. Let me tell you, I have plenty of friends. They just aren't wrestlers, that's all. You were right about one thing though, even when I have in the Lords of Pain, and then the Brotherhood of Pain, I really didn't fit in. I really never spent any time with them, they were just sort of there. Now, I do fit in. I have found my place here in TNT, as one of the Multi Killionaires.
So Stonehart, you had better be ready. I say this all of the time, but this time I really mean it more than ever, I'm coming for blood. You will experience a beating like no other. A beating that con only be handed out by Venom. Stonehart, you are gonna have your ass handed to you. Actually, you know what's gonna be funny? Watching you pick up your teeth with a broken arm. I'm the tickin' time bomb of destruction. As the clock keeps tickin' you ass I'm gonna be kickin'! And Stonehart, I mean it more today than ever!!!
[Venom hands the microphone back to the ring announcer. Dyer's Eve by Metallica hits the speakers once again. The arena goes pitch black with the exception of the red spot light directed on Venom. Venom climbs out of the ring and down the steps. He walks back up the ramp, through the curtain and backstage. He makes his way down the hall towards the dressing room. He opens the door to find the 24 pack of Molson Canadian to be empty.]
Venom - What the hell? You said you'd save some!!!
Rampage - I know, but you were taking a long, time and well.... ya, you know, shit happens.
Karnage - Ya, look, we'll buy you some beer when we go to the bar later.
Venom - Alright fine. Doesn't matter anyway.
[All three men make their way out of the dressing room and down the hall. The camera fades to black as the three of them turn around the corner.]
