In the eye of the beholder...
(Fade in on Dakota, as he paces slowly sporting a cynical grin, he slowly begins to face the camera… And as he does, his grin is replaced by a disdained mien… His demeanor almost distorting his face, his tone sharp and scornful…)
DAKOTA: Scars and Stripes is history now, and no one will remember who fought who and what the outcome was… Except for those who came up short… Much like you Sarge, you talked all this crap about payback and when the moment presented itself all you were able to do was absorb more punishment… The only thing you got out of it was more pain and more disappointment… And the UCW in its infinite wisdom decides to reward you for your mundane efforts with yet another match against me, and to make it a bit more interesting they made for a contender’s match… Interesting indeed Sarge; what is the UCW up to!? Are they looking out for your best interest, or are they just throwing you to the hungry wolves!? Questions you need to ask Sarge, and what if you are nothing more than collateral damage!? Here you are, actually believing that your time to shine is around the corner when in reality, the only thing that awaits you is more pain and more disappointment… Do you seriously think that you stand a chance amigo!? Do you seriously believe that this time around you actually stand a better chance than the previous time!? Fate is once again, against you Sarge… But if we listen to you and your cackling jargon, you’ll say otherwise… It doesn’t matter that you think that there’s a big freaking “S” on your chest, so you claim you’ve taken down entire stables and/or social clubs, so what!!! Am I supposed to be concerned now!?… (Smirks and sarcastically says…) Okay, if you say so… But tell me, how do you explain that remark about me beating Team UCW single-handedly!? If that’s true, then you have more to worry about than a few cheap chair shots… I came into your back yard and whipped your ass, true it took a chair, but none the less I whipped your ass… You came to MCW and beat up on some mid-carders and what did it get you Sarge!? Nothing!!! And at Scars and Stripes, again I came into your back yard and whipped your ass… But to tell you the truth, the last time was a team effort, my team against your team and we beat you, plain and simple… So don’t go pounding your chest just yet, the third time around will not be the charm for you, it’ll be more like history repeating itself, because yet again you fail to comprehend it… Don’t underestimate me amigo, don’t judge my actions for what you want them to be… You are like the rest of the UCW, you are so into this so-called invasion, this MCW takeover that you are oblivion to what is lurking within the shadowst…
(Shrugs his shoulders and with a cynical tone he continues…)
DAKOTA: But you’re entitled to your opinions, after all opinions are like assholes; we all have one Sarge… Some are bigger than others; let’s take yours in this case… You came out and made a real ass out of yourself when you decided to take it up a notch and talk crap about me and about how bad you wanted a piece of me… You got your wish and didn’t do a damn thing with it, sure you got a few good punches in, one or two moves and afterwards you flamed out!!! (Smirks) That night saw many strange things happening, the crowning of a new champion, you getting your ass handed to you yet again, but one event in particular comes to mind… You know which one… Ain’t that right Bryan… I hear them calling you a traitorous dog… In fact some are even calling you a coward… Me!? I care less what they call you and for that matter what they think of you… You did what you had to do, it’s only right that you look out for number one, but in your overzealousness, you crossed a line you shouldn’t have… You treaded on the wrong snake amigo… This snake bites back… (Smirks) So enjoy it while you have it… Now Sarge, do you see where that leaves you!? It leaves you in the wrong place and at the wrong time… But I know, your opinion and belief are that you are the Sarge, the man who in the past has taken down stables and the likes… And you want to know what I really think about that!? Who gives a flying S(BLEEP)T!!! Sarge, let’s keep this short and simple… I’m coming to kick your ass yet again and, you!? (Smirks) Well let’s just say, you’re under the assumption that you’re going to get some payback… Que sera, sera amigo… Come get you some… You can come out now Rico…
(Turns and walks away laughing… As camera is about to fade, it catches a glimpse of Rico, coming closer and closer, never taking his eyes from Dakota’s exit path, once he feels assured that Dakota is truly gone, he smirks and says….)
RICO: Yea Dakota, I’ll meet ya later… Call me… Well folks, as you can see Dakota actually needs speech therapy but who’s going to tell him… But anyway, he doesn’t say much and he’s modest to boot… I agree with you Sarge, he “single-handedly” beat the living snots out of team UCW… His team was there just for the ride, (Smirks) Of course I am sure that Chris and Nakita will beg to differ, but who gives a rat’s ass!!! But anyway, Dakota doesn’t say much Sarge, he doesn’t even like doing these promos, hates them with a passion… But he’s getting better with each passing day; who knows Sarge, maybe someday he’ll be as good as you and will be able to let the BS flow like poetry, I really admire that about you… But don’t underestimate Dakota, he’s as treacherous as they come, in fact even more so!!! Just look at his lineage Sarge, he’s even more treacherous than his predecessors… So good night Charlie!!! You’re a dea….
(Without warning camera suddenly fades out to black …)
