time: thursday evening

day: may eighth

place: bailey's bay, bermuda; engel residence.

(It's not too often I get mail from people that have wronged me in the past. But, this certain piece of mail has requested a meeting with me next week. Face to face. This man, who has caused nothing but trouble for me and my family, actually wants to have a civilized meeting with me. I can't believe it.)

(But then again, weirder things have happened. Maybe it's time for a change. I hit record.)

IRUS:
I almost forgot just how immature Project X really is. What's this I hear about your fantasy of incest, X? How about you grow the fuck up, and realize that you're nothing but a lost cause. You had your time and your pathetic title reign. You inked yourself into the PWA history books, and maybe got yourself on a hall of fame ballot. But, you're old, dumb, and yet growing ever more immature and desperate. You're fading away, and I can't wait until you're fully gone. Like I said before, I'd hate to have to embarrass you when you think you're on top of your game.

Because, according to you, the UHWA was a fluke for you. And yes, your memory of that place is poor indeed. Joe was never in the UHWA. He was kicking MoA ass in the JWA. He never came across your path, and had he done so, he would've put you to shame just like I did. I'm the Engel that you came across in the low point of your career, and I destroyed you.

And even at your high point, I'm still going to break you. There's no doubt about it, and I'm sorry, but there's nothing you can do to stop me.

(I pause for a moment, and turn my head away from the camera.)

VIRUS: There it is. X has run out of material, so he resorts to making fun of nicknames. Like I haven't heard that shit before, motherfucker.

You talk about the MoA like you did something about it. What did you do? All you did was shit your pants when you thought the MoA targeted you. They didn't have the time to waste on you, X. I was their target, and I took care of it. I handled my business with them. What did you do? Tell me what you did. Oh, you chokeslammed my sister through a ring. Yeah, that's all you've done. That's the only reason why I care about this match, and the only reason why people even care to mention you anymore.

I've stepped up to the plate more times in my career than you can even dream of, bitch. When was the last time you stepped up? You got lucky with that Keys to Glory bullshit, and you did next to nothing to prove you were a worthy champion. Hell you were even given a second chance at my brother's event -- which you have yet to thank him for -- and you couldn't step up and get the job done. So please, quit all of this nonsense about how I need to step up, when you haven't done anything of the sort. I hate hypocrites.

Not as much as I hate idiots who dish out personal attacks on my family. What are you thinking? I guess you'd rather have you and your fucktard of a partner Phoenix get the shit kicked out of you than try to survive in this match. X you're dragging your partner down a path that doesn't end well for either one of you.

(A cold stare into the camera.)

VIRUS: And... wait, did you seriously just do that, X? When did you and Phoenix tag up a different time other than facing Grade A Nastyness and getting your asses handed to you? You're going to count that eight man tag match that was bullshit the moment it was booked. That's reaching right there. Your team won because you had Might & Magic not because you and Phoenix were on it. Believe it or not, Moke and Dragon are much better PWA veterans than you and Phoenix. Their stars shine a lot brighter than yours. But I guess hiding behind that ridiculous mask and being old and decrepit, you wouldn't understand that.

Just like you don't understand that the team of Phoenix and Project X is old news. You guys are a dying breed. But, fortunately, I'm not part of a breed that's going to replace you.

I already have replaced you. Both of you. I am the elite, the future.

Can't you see that? Both of you have had shots at the World Title, and failed miserably. I don't see any reason why President Sommers needs to keep you in the main event. Name sake? Ratings? Please! There are plenty of wrestlers here that boost ratings and put asses in the seats, moreso than you two.

One of them is me. People will watch this match because I'm in it, not because two former World Champions who are official has-beens are teamed up and destined to lose.

I hope that hits home.

I do not forgive.

I do not forget.

The pressure is on for you two to prove that you're not fading stars.

(fade.)
