[Kick Start my Heart by Motley Crue hits the speakers, and the sold out TNT Wrestling audience erupts.  Nic Totopoulous comes out from behind the curtain and onto the main stage.  He is wearing a read jump suit and has a microphone in hand.  What he does not have though is the TNT Wrestling World Heavyweight Championship Title belt.  He walks down the ramp toward the ring.
 

 

Totopoulous walks over to the stairs.  He already has a microphone in hand as he walks up the steps, climbs through the ropes and into the ring.  He walks directly to the middle of the ring as his music stops.  He begins to address the audience.]

I'm sure that a lot of you expect me to come out here and yell and scream and make a big scene.  In the past, that's what I might have done.  But now that I am a little older and a little more mature, I know that getting angry isn't going to get me anywhere.  The only thing I know I have to do right now is not let my emotions get the best of me.  What I have to do right now is try to stay calm, and focus on what got me here, what got me to TNT Wrestling, and what got me to being the World Heavyweight Champion.  I have to focus on wrestling.  There are a lot of side show antics going on around TNT right now, but that is nothing out of the ordinary.  People are always running around here, trying to get their face on TV, trying to make a name for themselves, trying to get the fans to either love them or hate them.  What a lot of people forget about though, is that the profession that I am in, and the profession that everyone in the back is in, is professional wrestling.  We are all professional wrestlers, and that before everything else should come first.

There is a man right now that exemplifies all of the characteristics I just described.  He is trying to do what he can to get noticed.  He is doing what he can to get the fans to hate him.  He is doing what he can to get my attention, and to get me to hate him.  Well right now, I don't hate him.  But I am getting awefully close.  Over the last few weeks, this man and all of his little minions have been getting under my skin with the way they have behaved over the past few weeks.  They have done nothing but attack me, or insult me, or steal from me.  Lo-Lander...  Lo-Lander, it's you that has gotten under my skin the most through.  It is you that has caused me to lose my focus over the past few weeks and let my emotions get the better of me.  I have to learn that being the best in this business is everything.  Being the best that I can be is everything.  Being better than you Lo-Lander is everything.  Right now there are thirty guys backstage that want to be positioned where you are right now.  They want to be the one pissing off the champion.  They want to be the one getting the matches against the champion.  They want to be the one that will almost undoubtedly get that title shot that you have yet to earn.

Yes, I know that you beat me last Sunday night Lo-Lander.  I know that I had my shoulders pinned to the mat last Sunday night, and you pinned me in the centre of the ring.  But you didn't earn that victory.  You didn't earn anything last Sunday night.  But maybe you did out smart me Lo-Lander.  Maybe you did set up a trap that I fell directly into.  Maybe I was naive about what you and The Unforgettable Power can accomplish.  Maybe I was.  But I am no longer naive.  I am no longer going to assume that everything is going to be fair for me.  Everytime I come to the arena for a show, I will be looking over my shoulder, I will be keeping one eye open for trouble, I will be ready for anything and everything.  You'd think I would have learned by now that I am not safe, especially as the World Champion.  Well, last week I finally learned my lesson.  Last week I learned that when I thought I kept up my guard, that I actually didn't.  I now know what it takes to be safe, and believe me, I will be taking all measures to do so from now on.

Now that brings me to another point.  That brings me to the incident that occured after the match last night.  That brings me to when Lo-Lander left the ring and took my belt.  He didn't just take my belt for a moment to try and feel what it would be like to be the champion, but he took it, and I believe he has no intention of giving it back.  Now lets take trip down memory lane for a moment here.  Let me go through the history of people who have taken a belt that I have held.  Let me start with a person by the name of Jason Jet.  Last spring I held the UWA Television Championship belt.  Jason Jet wanted a shot at the title, so he stole my belt.  What happened to him?  Well as the greatest Television Champion of all time, and as the best wrestler on television, I beat him in the match.  I not only beat him, but I devastated him, I embarassed him, and he was left in a bloody heap.  Let me continue to lsat summer when I was the UWA Undisputed World Heavyweight Champion.  As soon as I won the match to win the belt, Kevin Cosmos stole my belt.  He held it for nearly a month.  During that month I attacked him, I hurt him, I embarassed him week after week before he finally gave in and handed me my belt back.  He had no choice, because otherwise he would have had to put up with the pain that only I can inflict.

So Lo-Lander, you have put yourself in quite a predicament here.  You have put yourself in a very unfavourable position here.  You have stolen my TNT Wrestling World Championship belt, and you will suffer the same fate as both Jason Jet and Kevin Cosmos.  You will be hurt, bloodied, injured, and embarassed.  When you took my belt, you made me angry.  When I get angry, I get even.  I don't lose my focus, but I tunnel my anger energy and attack with more force than you could ever imagine.  I am already a man in the ring who can dismantle any opponent at will, just think how dangerous I can be if my focus is streamed in a more physical manner.  Think about it Lo-Lander, and think about the situation you have put yourself in.
 

 

This brings me to the actual match last week Lo-Lander.  That brings me to your victory against me last week.  That was only the second defeat I have suffered since the new era in TNT Wrestling began.  That is only the second defeat I have suffered in the last four and a half months.  Do you remember how I lost that first one Lo-Lander?  The same way you won yours.  I was hit in the head with a chair by someone who wasn't even in the match.  Bodacious Billy attacked me with a steel chair allowing Kage to get the victory.  Last Sunday night was the same way.  White Thunder decided to stick his nose where it doesn't belong.  He decided to join forces with The Unforgettable Power, making it possibly the most powerful force TNT Wrestling has ever seen.  They have The Unforgettables who have proven to be a power on their own.  They have Lo-Lander who has stepped up his game these past few weeks.  Then we have White Thunder who did have an impressive outing last week.  All four of these men have been making great improvements, and they are almost ready for the big time.  They are almost ready to be able to take on yours truly.  But Lo-Lander know this, you victory was definitly tainted.  While you will go down in the record books as being the victor, you know that it was an unfair victory, and you know that you did not deserve it.  Lo-Lander, I hope that you get your title match against me.  That way I will get the opportunity to expose you are the wrestling hack that you really are.

And White Thunder.  You think that you're clever do you?  You think that you're a funny guy, hit me over the head with a chair.  Well you know what, it was a stupid move on your part.  Now that you cost me that match against Lo-Lander, there is a great chance that it will be Lo-Lander and not you that get's the World Title shot.  You haven't beaten me, nor have you beaten anyone of ny importance to deserve a title shot.  So White Thunder bring everything you have.  I have a new attitude about this business.  I know that there are very few people that I can actually trust, and I won't make the mistake of trusting someone like yourself ever again.  So White Thunder, I'll see you in the ring.  And good luck, because with the mood that I am in, you are going to need it.

[Kick Start my Heart by Motley Crue hits the speakers once again.  The crowd begins to cheer again as Totopoulous drops the microphone, walks over to the ropes and exits the ring.  He walks back up the ramp, through the ropes and out of the ring.  The music stops and the show continues.]
