SCENE ONE The scene opens up live following WiW Monday Night Meltdown where we saw "The Great One" The Rock triumph over the current WiW Champion "The Legend Killer" Randy Orton in stunning fashion also we saw Mr. Money in the Bank himself "Captain Charisma" Christian and R-Truth go wire to wire only to have Christian hit the Killswitch and get the victory. Also on this night we found out who would be challenging R-Truth for the European Championship at Retribution coming up later this month as Dolph Ziggler won an five-man elimination match last eliminating Sterling James Keenan. Later on in the night we heard from Dolph Ziggler who himself is a former European Champion in his own right but he proclaimed that he will regain the European Championship at any means neccessary and he will do whatever it takes no matter if it means injuring The Truth. The camera shifts to just behind the curtain as we see R-Truth walk through obviously he's frustrated as this was a big match and he couldn't capatalize on it.. He is shaking his head muttering some words do himself.
whats up! | R-TRUTH Damn dawg I thought I had it.. I took it to him though didn't I?
Truth looks around but no one is there.
whats up! | R-TRUTH What the hell? Where you at dawg? One second your behind me the next your not whats up with that?
Truth throws his hands up in the air. Obviously he is searching for his manager Teddy Long.
whats up! | R-TRUTH Where is this fool at?
Truth walks back through the curtain and a few seconds later he walks back through this time hoisting the European Championship up.
whats up! | R-TRUTH Thats what I'm talking about. Did you hear the roar of the crowd as I re-emerged through these curtains? They wanted to know what was up and I showed 'em.
As Truth walks through finally we catch a glimpse of Teddy Long.
playa playa | TEDDY LONG Truth ya did good out their tonight playa.
whats up! | R-TRUTH Good?
Truth raises a brow as he scratches the side of his head.
whats up! | R-TRUTH What match were you watching? Didn't you see the exact same thing as everybody else? I lost Teddy, and everyone know's champions don't lose.
Teddy waves it off.
playa playa | TEDDY LONG Awe, everyone no matter whether your a champion or not goes through rough times from here and there the fact of the matter is that your the European Champion and look at who you beat for that title playa. I mean you beat two of the biggest names in this industry Alex Shelley and The Rock, who need I remind you is a former WiW and World Heavyweight Champion that should stack somewhere I mean eventually WiW Management and Lana Starr McMahon in particular are going to have to quit acting like they don't notice you and give you the WiW Title shot because who else has done anything remotely good enough to be deserving of a WiW Championship match? Nobody that's who, you've made your mark since first debuting in this company a few months back and less then two and a half months in you won your first piece of gold up here in the WiW and you were able to keep a firm grip on the title last month at the biggest stage of 'em all playa in Wrestlemania 7. You put on a performance of a lifetime and you took that cowboy to your own special rodeo and look at him? He's probably in Tennessee somewhere flipping flap-jacks for all we know.
whats up! | R-TRUTH Serves the mother trucker right I mean heading into Mania last month he did everything within his power to put a brother down but in the end it backfired and look at him now he's on the damn unemployment line while I'm living it up here in the WiW.
playa playa | TEDDY LONG Would you have it any other way?
whats up! | R-TRUTH Hell no.. I mean, I'd much rather be here in the WiW then anywhere else I mean I'm actually getting noticed here for something other then street-cred I mean people are actually noticing that The Truth has some damn in-ring talent and that I'm not all talk but that I can damn sure walk the walk this right here proves that.
Truth puts the European Title over his shoulder as he pats the faceplate.
whats up! | R-TRUTH Besides who else can say they came into a company and right off the bat in less then three months they were a champion? That's not only making a statement that's making a damn impact and thats telling everyone to "watch out" cause this guy means business. Obviously the goal I have as everyone in our sport does is to become the greatest wrestler alive and to one day become WiW Champion and I'm well on my way.. If you look back most WiW Champions have in one way or another started from the bottom and worker their way up and most have held this European Championship it helped launch their career into the right path and already I've competed in numerous Main Events live on t.v. not to mention I was involved in a Four Way a few weeks back in which would have brought me into the WiW Championship match at Fatal Fusion only to come up inches short thanks to Paul Burchill who finally realized his dream as he beat Chris Jericho for the title just that following Sunday Night. I can't say I was thrilled cause honestly I would have given anything to be in his shoes but I wasn't and I had to live with it.. I had the chance but I blew it..
playa playa | TEDDY LONG Hmm, I wouldn't use those choice of words Truth. I mean you were in their with the likes of The Rock, Paul Burchill and Alex Shelley you were considered the underdog in that match as those three they had been in the limelight before and they knew what it felt like to be a champion.. You, yours didn't come until the following month at Wild Road when you stunned the entire WiW Universe and Alex Shelley himself as you pinned his shoulders to the mat and became the European Champion and playa things haven't slowed down since. Your riding a whirlwind right now, facing the likes of Christian, Chris Sabin, Hulk Hogan the names are endless and your able to be involved in matches like these because Wiw Management see potential in you and that's courtesy of me. Because, like I told you when you phoned me up Truth I can make things good for you playa and things are turning out that way. Now, obviously I can't guarantee a win every night but I can guarantee that you'll be talked about and that from here on out if their looking for someone to put in the spotlight their's no one bigger then The Truth.
whats up! | R-TRUTH Amen to that my brother. Preach..
playa playa | TEDDY LONG Like I said Truth since you've won that title you've been riding a full wave of momentum sure at time's you've seemingly lost control at the wheel but you've still got the title intact and it doesn't look like your going to lose it anytime soon. Sure, we all saw tonight that Dolph Ziggler was able to win that elimination match but lets face it Ziggler he can't get the job done as hard as he tries he's going to fall at the feet of a true future legend in R-Truth.. Because you, your gifted.. You were born and bred to do what it is you do each and every week and as much as Ziggler tries to recapture the championship that made him who he is today like Storm and Shelley and The Rock before him he will ultimately fail. Because there are ordinary people and then their is The Truth.
Teddy holds his hands out as the camera zooms in on a closeup of R-Truth. He snickers.
whats up! | R-TRUTH I couldn't of said it better myself Teddy.. That's why I got you dawg cause you know how to pull the strings and when it comes to business their's no one better then Theodore Long.
Teddy who is all but conceited right about now he puts his hands up on the collar of his shirt as he goes to speak..
playa playa | TEDDY LONG Holla Holla.
He smirks.. As he and Truth walk off as the scene fades.
SCENE TWO The scene opens up live inside the Air Canada Centre in Toronto, Ontario, Canada for Monday Night Meltdown where we will see the current WiW Champion in action against "Macho Man" Randy Savage as well as a rare preview of two highly-anticipated title matches that have been announced for Retribution as AJ Styles and Dolph Ziggler team up to take on their opponents the Intercontinental and European Champion in Hulk Hogan and R-Truth. The camera fades live backstage as the camera is positioned just outside the lockeroom of R-Truth as we can see in which that's what the nameplate reads. The door we can see is cracked open as we peek inside and we can see Teddy Long sitting on the couch in front of the tv monitor perhaps going over some tape of Truth's opponents tonight. Suddenly the camera zooms out into the hallway as we see R-Truth walking up and he has a bottle of water in hand as he takes a sip.. He then shouts out.
whats up! | R-TRUTH Yo, whats up?
He raises his head as he walks up towards the camera crew wondering what their doing.
whats up! | R-TRUTH What are you guys doing? You guys trying to sneak in on my boy T-Long?
The camera shakes a little as the camera man motions towards Truth.
whats up! | R-TRUTH It's alright if you guys wanted to know what was up all ya guys had to do was ask.. Come on in.
Truth cuts in front of the camera as he pushes himself into the door and they all walk inside.. Right away Truth throws his arms up into the air shouting some words out to his manager.
whats up! | R-TRUTH Yo, what up T-Dawg?
Long nearly jumps out of his seat as he hops up and has a terrified look on his face. He holds his chest.
playa playa | TEDDY LONG Damn, Truth you nearly gave me a heartattack playa don't do that again.
whats up! | R-TRUTH I'm sorry Teddy I figured ya would have known sooner or later The Truth would be making it back in here.. I just had to go get a sip of something to drink ya feel me?
playa playa | TEDDY LONG Yeah, I do but next time give me a fore warning cause playa I could feel my heart in my throat playa ya scared the crap out of me.
whats up! | R-TRUTH My bad dawg, my bad.
playa playa | TEDDY LONG It's alright Truth..
whats up! | R-TRUTH So what'cha doing that got ya all worked up in the first place?
playa playa | TEDDY LONG I'm just going over some tapes of AJ's and Dolph Zigglers matches they've had in the past.
whats up! | R-TRUTH Oh really? Cool.. Any good?
playa playa | TEDDY LONG Well you know AJ here in the WiW he has had some mild success in multiple tag teams and he's came close on numerous occasions of finally breaking through that barrier and winning championship gold but each and every time he comes so close but he can't get the job done. It's like he is wanting to grab the brass ring he just each and everytime can't muster up enough strength to do so.. So, as far as AJ Styles goes in the match I don't think I foresee him as being a major threat in the match now Dolph Ziggler on the other hand he is a former European Champion and he's got a few good moves in his arsenal from his Zig Zag finisher to his Sleeper Hold in which he can lock in at any time plus your going to be the one defending your title against him and not AJ. I'd more prefer if you would be booked against AJ as it would be a piece of cake but Dolph Ziggler I'm not to sure about him Truth.
whats up! | R-TRUTH Your kidding me right? Please tell me you didn't say that Teddy? How can you under estimate me? You of all people should have all of the confidence in the world of me. After all, why else would you be by my side and accompany me to the ring every single time? Because you saw something special in me and you still do. Hell, I saw something special in you.. I know, your not billed as "The Manager of Champions" but you come pretty close.. Look at how dominat Jazz was when you were by her side and Rodney Mack he dominated in those White Boy Challenges.. As far as I'm concerned Teddy Long is the manager of champions and he is managing one of the greatest european champions of this era and beyond in The Truth. I look to have a dominant reign yo and I aint about to stop now. Yeah, I know Ziggler means business I can see it in his eyes, he's hungry. He wants some championship gold but he best move on elsewhere cause he aint gonna get it from this brother. It's been a long while since Europe had something to cheer about I mean when's the last successful european champion up in here? I can't even think of one they've all been one and done they win the title one week and the next their out. That aint cool and that's not what I'm about to be about. I'm gonna be a fighting champion and it showed at the grandest stage of them all because I went into Wrestlemania backed in a corner and I came out like a house of fire hitting everything I could and at the end of the night Storm just couldn't face facts that The Truth was about to set him free. I sent him packing so what do you think I'm gonna be doing about Dolph Ziggler? This aint my first rodeo and I hope Ziggler knows it.. But don't think I'm gonna just act as if this is going to be an easy walk to the finish line because not for one second am I taking Dolph Ziggler lightly I know what he brings to the table and he much like most of my opponents want nothing more then to beat my head in to try to get some attention and get them into the spotlight where they have a chance to become european champion but that's just not going to happen. Last time Ziggler held WiW gold it was this same title and he beat the likes of Edge to do it which is a tremendous accomplishment considering Edge is a former World Champion but we all know Edge isn't the same Edge from three or four years ago time has seemingly passed him by and it's been ages since we last saw him but Ziggler he stepped up and took that title from around his waist and threw it up in the air with honor and prestige yet what happened? He threw it all away as Alex Shelley beat the living crap out of him and took it, then a month later I did exactly the same thing to Alex Shelley along with The Rock and yeah! I know I've been repeating myself about this but you've got to realize that it's a true accomplishment beating the likes of those two because they are legends in this business especially this company and not to many men who are starting out can say they won a title off of Shelley and The Rock. But I, I'm one of 'em dawg. Ya best be ready cause The Truth is coming at'cha full blown and I'mma be laying a hurtin' on ya dawg.
playa playa | TEDDY LONG Truth, now thats what I call a promo playa.
whats up! | R-TRUTH Hey what can I say? The Truth is what it be!
He throws his arms up as he cracks a smirk. The WiW logo then scrolls across the screen as we fade to black.
