Mark that down as three former professional wrestling legends in who have succumbed to The Franchise in recent weeks. Bret Hart; The Hitman - at one point, the best there was. Hurdles - big and small - he overcame. Throughout his professionalw restling career, Bret Hart was considered to be a specialist. The smarts. The moves. The looks. The fans. Heck, what didn't this guy have? But ya' know - he much like Shawn Michaels failed to realise that his days have passed us. His legacy may very well live on in our hearts forever, but the Bret Hart that once was is no more. Monday Night made it official. Monday Night cemented Shane Douglas as being one of the big fish .. as being a threat .. to that World Heavyweight Championship. One way or another, sooner or later, Douglas will be granted the opportunity most dream of. He cannot, and will not be denied of what rightfully belongs to him. In such a short period of time, The Franchise has proved the fact that his days are still filled with the bright sunshine. Interestingly enough, Shane Douglas has agreed to stand on the side of "The Heart Throbs" AND Bret Hart to face off against The Hurricane and Rosey, The Undertaker and The Rock at September's pay per view; Call 2 Arms. Although if such meant victory, one can only find it hard to believe that The Franchise would agree to stand alongside Bret Hart. Question's gotta' be asked; is he planning of completely running The Hitman out of the business? Only time will tell, but as for now, Douglas will take on Edge this coming Monday Night at Raw Attitude in a Singles Match. No doubt - it's drawing the eyes of thousands upon thousands across the globe. Edge; Intercontinental Champion. Shane Douglas; a veteran who's career is far from over. This one as good ol' J.R would say is gonna be a slobber knocker ... folks.
-[[ That beautiful sound of the school bell ringing. It's music to the ears, isn't it? Because lets face it; when you hear it, you know school's over, and that's a relief. A big relief. The cameras pick up the scene in Secondary School. Kids have evacuated by now, and all that's left are the few cleaners. Teachers? They're long gone. Principal? Heck, who cares. Probably in the office. Regardless, in one of the empty classrooms stands Shane Douglas. His arms are crossed, and he's got an arrogant grin plastered from ear to ear. Seconds tick by - nothing. He waits. And he waits. Until finally - the moment arrives. ]]- " THE FRANCHISE " Shane Douglas: " Lone Wolf, I can't make it any clearer to you. I am your better. I stand above you. I always have, and I always will. One way or another - you're gonna find that out. Whether that be the easy way, or whether that be the hard way - that's up to you, pal. ALL up .. to you. " -[[ A slight pause. ]]- " THE FRANCHISE " Shane Douglas: " But ya' know, you're too stupid to figure that one out. You're too fucking thick to have belief in reality, so instead, you wrap your own little mind around a fantasy. You make yourself believe that you've been held back. that you've been dealt a bunch'a crappy cards. But that's not the truth. It's FAR from it, and Edge, deep down inside - you know it. Fact is; you were never held back. You just ain't up to it, pal. You ain't up to playin' ball with the big boys. You're a worthless mid-carder. Nothing more. " -[[ Douglas begins to rub his chin, pondering. ]]- " THE FRANCHISE " Shane Douglas: " You keep tellin' yourself I'm a poor attempt of a Triple H. Hell, kid - keep tellin' that 'till you're blue in the face, because at the end of the day, I don't give a single shit what you think. I care about one thing; makin' sure your shoulders are pinned down for the three count. Don't get mew rong - that ain't by ANY means a difficult task - but rest assure, It's not gonna' mean I'm takin' you lightly. See, I got a point to prove. Not only to you. Not only to your bitch of a brother. But to the world, Edge. I got'a prove ONE more time that I'm STILL The Franchise! That I'm STILL the best this god damn company has ever produced! And ya' know ... Lone Wolf ... that makes you the perfect example. It makes you my sacrifical lamb. It makes you my BITCH! " -[[ The level of intensity increases. The camera zooms in, as Douglas' eyes stare directly in a straight line. ]]- " THE FRANCHISE " Shane Douglas: " To tell ya' the truth, I'm gettin' sick of ya' pity stories. I'm gettin' sick'a hearin' the same old crap you've been spitting out since you've parked your ass into A-P-W. "The Real Edge". "They Made Me Like This". Oh come on, for fuck sake, who are you tryin' to impress? Raven? 'Cause lemme' tell ya', in all my years in professional wrestling you're the one and the ONLY stupid enough to ever desire to be like that piece'a shit. And I find it amusing. I find it funny. REAL funny, because here you are - a man with no credibility, no fuckin' pride and no fuckin' achievements ... And you come out, and you whore out a bunch of crap regardin' the wrestling world not taking ME seriously. Cut me a break; YOU are the fucking limpwrist that ain't being taken with a pinch of shit. And yet, it's your destiny? It's your time? Oh my. Dear-o me. Hasn't that one been said before? Hasn't the "my destiny, my time" bullshit been dragged along in the mud enough? Honestly. Can you not come up with somethin' a tad more intelligent then that? Despite being Canadian, and despite being a brainless bastard - I'd expect more. But ya' know, Edge, maybe my expectations are set a little too high. For after all, it IS you .. it IS the man that has won seven Tag Team Championships. Ha-ha. Don't ya' think you've embarrassed yourself enough? " -[[ Shane Douglas runs his fingers through his hair, making sure it's still as perfect as it was when we first came on the air. After adjusting himself, Douglas' focus returns to the camera. ]]- " THE FRANCHISE " Shane Douglas: " Its been brought to my attention that you're in strong belief that I'm going to be ... 'Edge-u-cated' ... as you'd put it. Which is why we're here, in a classroom, in front of a chalkboard. 'Cause see, I'm gonna spell it out for ya'. I'm gonna lay it out in terms that even YOU can understand, because it's quite clear that there ain't a damn thing registering thus far in that head of yours. You talk about pain, Edge? You've got no idea. NO IDEA, Edge, because until you've danced upon an ECW Ring then you ain't suffered a fucking THING! Each and every single night of my life, I was remidned by the constant scars all over my body. ECW ... was ... extreme. Fact is - you woudn't of lasted a fucking minute, let alone years. The amount of blood guys sacrificed for the love of the business and for the touch of Championship Gold is far beyond your knowledge. " -[[ The Franchise seemingly has something bothering him. More or less; like an irritating itch. ]]- " THE FRANCHISE " Shane Douglas: " For one reason or another, you've got yourself thinkin' I care about what ya' think. Do I need your respect? Nah. Do I have it? Nah. Do I care? Nah. See, you can think of me what you like, because it won't change the result. It won't change me beatin' you the FUCK down, Edge. Ya' got that kid? Opinions - I don't give a fuck. Not a single, flying FUCK about 'em. Why? Because everyone has one. And because in the long run, an opinion means jack shit. Just like you. " -[[ Silence. Douglas stands still. Absolutely no expression at all in his face. ]]- " THE FRANCHISE " Shane Douglas: " Full of hate you very well might be, and I'll tell ya' why. Envy. I'm everythin' you aspire to be. I've done what you've always wanted to do, and that's win World Championships and DOMINATE companies. A thing that you ain't capable of doing. Hurt, doesn't it? Ha-ha! I'm born for glory, limpwrist. I'm born for gold and I'm BORN to end useless fucks like you! As far as I'm concerned, this Monday Night is nothin' out of the ordinary. You're a figure. You're a number. You're nothin' special and you're nothin' that I can't handle. And I'm telling you right now, boy - mark my words. I will stop you. I'll end you! I'll leave your career .. shattered .. in a million .. fucking .. pieces. And then, Edge? Then I'm gonna look down at your sorry ass and I'm gonna laugh. 'Cause to me - you're a joke. " -[[ Just when you thought that Shane Douglas was about to write up some formula on the chalkboard, he doesn't. He keeps it rather simple. " FRANCHISE >> LONE WOLF " covers the best part of the board. Shane underlines it, looks to the camera, and points back to the board with purpose. ]]- " THE FRANCHISE " Shane Douglas: " I can't simplify that any further for ya' Edge. You either get it or ya' don't. Either way, you're on a downward spiral and there's no way of turnin' back. The day you agreed to step foot in the squaed circle with The Franchise is the day you signed your death certificate. It's a decision you made. A choice you've stuck by. And that's the thing about life. Paths in which you take a walk down are chosen by you. So happens to be, that the lane you're walkin' down is a dead end! There IS No Way Out .. It's just you and me, mano-e-mano .. Franchise .. to Jobber. So as these last few hours tick over, I want the thought to sink in. I want you to realise that it's all on your hands. That it's YOUR fault, and nobody elses. I've given you warnings, I've told you what to do. But did you listen? Nah. You've ignored mya dvice, and thus, you MUST suffer the concequences. Like it or not Edge, your ass is gettin' takin' to School .. And you're gonna learn, that " GOD CREATED THE FRRRRANCHISE! -[[ Big smirk. He's proud of himself. He crosses his arms again and nods his head, as the scene slowly begins to fade away to a black screen. ]]- |
