Cameras are showing a black screen, then suddenly, the blackness begins to dissolve and then show a silver 2004 ford Mustang parked outside of restaurant. A few seconds pass before the driver gets out of his car, The man has black and has a silver bracelet on his left wrist , he's wearing white nike air force ones, black jeans with grafitti letters on them and a white t shirt . The man then begins to walk all of the sudden alot of paparazzi starts to come and make a circle around the man, everyone then starts shouting questions left and right, the man then gets an aggravated look on his face as he begins to speak.
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli :"Alright people one at the time."
'I got a big mouth' Jack : "Hi Johnny,I would like to ask you are the rumors true? have you found a new federation? Will we get to see Johnny The Bull Stamboli in action once again?"
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli : "Yes, it is true, I have Joined another wrestling organization."
'I also got a big mouth' Janice : "Johnny, what made you decide to join another federation?"
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli : "What made me want to join another federation you ask? well its simple, a man like me should always be in a ring kicking peoples asses, and xWa has now the honor to say that I Johnny The Bull Stamboli am now in their active roster."
'I also got a big mouth' Janice : "So can you tell us what are your goals in xWa?"
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli : "Woah.. how original, what the hell do you think my goals are? what do you think a star like my self has in mind now that he has joined a new federation?"
'I also got a big mouth' Janice : "Well I dont know.."
Johnny then interupts her.
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli : "Anything? yeah, we know that you dont know anything, I dont know why they give people like you this kind of jobs, wait on second, think I do.They give people like you these jobs because obviously everyone loves a woman with big tities, no one cares how stupid they are as long as they look good and have big tits, thats all you are. You damn stupid blonde why dont you do us all a favor and go get lost."
Janice then starts to cry and starts to walk away as Jack turns to Johnny.
'I got a big mouth' Jack : "Dont you think that was a little rude from your part Johnny? I mean it does make you look bad since you are on TV."
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli : "Uh, Did anyone ask you?"
'I got a big mouth' Jack :"Well uh-"
Johnny then interupts him.
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli : "No seriously did anyone ask you?"
'I got a big mouth' Jack : "Well not really you see-"
Johnny then interupts him once again.
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli : "I'm going to answer that for you, no, no one asked you so why dont you just shut the fuck up and like your little friend go get lost, as a matter of a fact all of you get lost. I am sick if being followed by you people, go on little ones go on."
Johnny then enters his car and just sits there. He watches everyone going away and far from his car. He then lays his head on the head holder and begins to speak.
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli : "Well, here I am again, in front of another camera, talking more shit, because that's one of the best things I do. This time around it's a bit different though. This is a new federation, another that will soon fall to the all mighty power of the new and improved Johnny The Bull Stamboli. And how does it start out for me? I get to take place in a Battle Royal to determine who will be the very first World Heavyweight Champion. There are no champions yet, and there aren't even any feuds yet. There's just a bunch of guys wanting to be the first xWa champion. However, guys, unfortunantly for you, you're looking at him. I am going to be the first xWa World Heavyweight Champion. I've watched the promos, I've watched you all talk your smack back and forth, but it's not good enough. All I keep hearing is, "blah blah blah, I'm going to win, blah blah blah". I haven't even heard anything else from your mouths. You all have been seriously mis-judged by the executives here, because all of you guys aren't main event material. Even though they have to work with what they got right now, that doesn't matter. It still doesn't change the fact that you all still suck. As I look at this federations roster I get disgusted. This is just plain pitiful. I mean what is this shit? They give anyone title shots this days? This is the type of shit that makes me wonder if I should even bother coming here. I mean evern Matt Hardy is allowed to be in this match, what the hell does this tell you? it tells me that this place is major trouble. Seriously, when someone like Matt Hardy gets an opportunity such as this it really makes you wonder if it's really worth it. I know that many don't believe that I should be talking do to what everyone has seen off me in the past, but fact is, I've changed, I've become much better than anyone or that even I thought possible. I have developed skills in the ring that not just everyone can develope in this World. In fact, I don't know of anyone nearly as good as I am today. As I look at the locker room I begin to think who's the one that's going to give me the most challenge. Yet I seem to find no challenge whatsoever in this place. This place is full of no bodies, full of talentless wrestlers, wrestlers who are no wear near my league. This is what I see when I look around xWa's locker room. To me the current roster is nothing but a joke. Especially the ones that have gone out and taken time from their unbusy life to go and cut some promos. All of this guys are just people who I laugh at. This guys can't even cut a promo right. And they expect them to put up a match against me? I don't really know what must be going through the Staff's mind but I guess that doesn't really matter. What matters here is that I have a shot at the biggest prize in the Xtreme Wrestling Alliance and I am not going to let it slide. I am going to seize my moment and be the first man to hold the Xtreme Wrestling Alliance World Heavyweight Championship. Don't believe me? Just watch, just watch. You're looking at the future. You see, way back when I first arrived to wrestling, people saw me as some stepping stool, they could just walk right over me to get somewhere. I was just some extra member of the Natural Born Thrillers, I didn’t really do anything special, captured the Hardcore Title, but lost that soon after it, no one thought I’d amount to anything right, well hell I didn’t care. But now is different, now things have changed and more importantly I have changed. I’m not the same person I once was, within the years I have grown to become a stronger and wiser individual. Grown so much, that I have even come to defeat people like Stone Cold themselves, even your all time favorite, The Rock, but you know that. I have goals, I have dreams much like everyone else. This is all I have left, the xWa, and I’m telling you right now, I don’t care who or what is put in my way, I’m going to walk right over them, because I have waited long enough. I want two things, two things, and I will get them. It’s only a short amount of time before I have the gold in my hands, and a short amount of time before you can refer to me as the Xtreme Wrestling Alliance Champion!"
Johnny laughs as he turns on his car. He then begins to drive away as the Xtreme Wrestling Alliance camera's fade to a black screen.
Inside The Mind
We all have goals right? Of course we do, we all have hopes and dreams every night, we all pray that one day we can be in the spotlight, but you know not everyone gets their chance. I’ve had one dream my whole life, and that was to become a World Heavyweight Champion, and I have yet to acomplish this, I have never been World Heavyweight Champion in my entire. I’ll get there one day, but first of all I want to go through people and prove that I am indeed a phenomenal athlete, and I’m not hype. It’s no problem to me though, because nearly everyone in that locker room is all talk, except for a few people who I know can really talk the talk and walk the walk so to speak, but besides them, everyone else I look at makes me sick. Over thirty superstars are signed to this great company, but are any of them of any significance? Not really. Do I care about what anyone here says or thinks about me? Nope. You can fire what you want at me, but don’t think I’ll just sit around and not say nothing back, because I wont. If someone around here wants to run their mouth about me, then Ill run my mouth about them, but talking isn’t the key to winning. You can talk all you want, claim yourself as whatever, but none of it matters until you really prove yourself inside that squared circle. I’ve come a long way since the beginning of my career, and there is no way I’m stopping anytime soon. I have stuff I want to get done, and I’m going to get what I want done right here in the xWa. Mark Daniels welcomed me with open arms. He was happy when I called him up the other day and told him I wanted to join in. You know what else I told him? No, you don’t, that’s why I’m going to tell you. When me and Mark talked and I told him I was coming but not as my old self, yet as a new Johnny Stamboli, I also told him that I was going to make a change around here. Well, not really a change, but I was going to make an impact. You see, Mark knows I have grown into a superb superstar, but he doesn’t want to hear how I have gotten better, he wants to see it, and he will, soon enough. Right now, the waiting game is being played, it’s only a matter of time before you see me and hear my name everywhere you go. Forget the Rock, forget Triple H, their time has passed. It’s time a new era comes into the world of wrestling, and its time for me to rise up. Say what you want to say about my words, but you will see it before your very own eyes, and hell, who knows, you may just be next in line. I cant help but laugh though, because all you people out there have no fucking idea what is coming, no idea what so ever, and before you know it, its going to come right up behind you and kick you in the ass. Everyone out there who continues to run their mouths better keep themselves in check and not let their ego get the best of them, because soon you will be fighting a force that can not be stopped, and as the old saying goes, when that happens, with out pain, with out sacrafice, we would have nothing.
Camera's open back up and Johnny The Bull Stamboli is seeing sittin down on a chair thinking before he looks into the camera and begins speaking.
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli : "As I sit here I think of only one thing, the same thing that I've been thinking all week, This up coming Battle Royal. The match that is fameous for having 20 men in it, here you have twenty men in one ring and they all have the same porpuse, to eliminate you out of the match, everyone says that they're going to win, that they're going to be succesful.. that no one will stop them and this and that. I dont exclude my self at all. I too said that I would win and no one can do anything about it. So I did the talk and now I gotta do the Walk, live up to my word. I mean 20 men in the ring is a pretty tough match. And to eliminate someone you toss your opponet over the top rope and make there feet touch the floor. You see thats no problem for a man like me, I mean look at me. I can handle that and more. In fact its no problem what so ever, I aint got a problem going an hour in one night, and I aint got no other problem going another hour. But you see no one in this federation is going to be able to not have a problem with it. They all got a problem it seems like. Every damn one of you guys go out to arena rings and try to make it look like they don't but behind it all they do. You see no one is ready to face 19 other men, I mean you need to be thinking about this match and its consequences. But I am, I am ready to do something again that no one thinks I'm capeable of pulling this off, absolutely not one soul in this federation thinks that I can pull this off. But this Saturday I will acomplish more then I ever imagined. I will be acomplishing gold! Pure gold! Gold that will take me the very first Xtreme Wrestling Alliance World Heavyweight Champion. The gold is everything to me, I try to be the best wresler I can be and yet I dont get the respect that I fucking deserve from anyone. I mean I try to be all I can fucking be! but yet you people don't seem to give a flying fuck. Hell you probably wouldn't care if I took out the Prez himself and made his ass sufer majorly and bleed!You see no one wants to give me what I deserve and thats respect, it seems as if no one has that for me in the xWa and you know what? that's beginning to really piss me off!"
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli :" You know I know that no one here respects the man that can very well go and kick you ass all over the ring then take a dump in your face and take all of your cash and get away with it. And I guess I can put up with all of this son of bitches who don't respect me until Saturday, but this up coming Saturday on Raw it will go down as this, 20 men will be in the ring at the same time, and all hell is going to break lose. But I will make sure that I make my presence felt so hard so I do not have to listen to people saying you didn't deserve it or something like that. you see I will be leaving Raw on Saturday with the World Heavyweight Championship around my waist, and then everyone will realize that I well damn sure deserve it unlike anyone else in the back of the locker room. No one is as good as i am. No one, and I mean no one can step up towards me. I have my mind set and my body functioned to be the champ . The World Heavyweight Championship is all that I want from this federation, and if I do not get it then I never will. I will be the man to walk out of there, and battle nine-teen other superstars and eliminate them all one by one. Now that takes some balls doesn't it? To go in there and be in the ring for 2 hours or more and walk out the World Heavyweight Champion. I can guarantee you no one else could do that, no one else will be able to go into Raw and come out the winner. Not one soul in that ring will be able to do the same that I will. You see I know that many people have two matches on Raw which gives me the advantage, I only have one match to worry about. One match and one match only. You all think you're tough, you all think you can take anyone out but news flash I'm in the match, Johnny The Bull Stamboli is in this match and I will not let anyone in this damn match throw me over the top rope, not one person. Mark my words.
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli :" So with this match coming and all I should probably talk some about my opponents, let me start of with Edge.Edge, If I were you I would call your family right before RAW and tell them to turn off their televisions or change the channel because I am going to give you a beatin of a life time, I am going to take you and make you my bitch. You are going to go through so much pain and theres not a damn thing that anyone can do about it, No one is going to be able to stop me from teaching you a lesson, no one is going to stop me from using you as an example of what is coming to them when they face me. Edge, I dont want you to take the beating that's coming to you on RAW personally, I by no means want you and I to have a feud because quite simply you're not worth it, I bet you think you're some big shot because you are in this match don't you? I hate to break it down to you but you aint shit, you're a disgrace to wrestling, you dont deserve to be in this type of match, you just dont. Edge, You make me sick, no no no.. you disgust me and you have to be the worse sorry excuse for a wrestler in the history of this bussiness, I mean Edge, your matches put people to sleep, you're just plain boring, and man I would love for you to try and hit that stupid fluke of a spear you have, you stupid little Goldberg wanna be, I hope you're not thinking on trying to eliminating me with that weak shit, I mean how stupid do you think I am? you think I'm just gonna stand there like a moron and wait for you to come running at full speed and spear me? like seriously all I have to do is step a side and you'll miss, and then there it goes your great finisher didnt even touch me, sad aint it? and whats going to suck even more is that after you attempt that pathetic move I am going to show you what a real finisher is, I am going to hit you with the Fuhgetabout it. and thats going to be it, Hell I might as well just throw you out of the ring instead of hitting you with my amazing finisher. Edge, as far as I'm concerned you can think of me as a Joke if you want because when the shit hits the fan it's going to be you laying on the ground watching stars, just remember this Edge, like your songs says, you think you know me... but that's the old me, not the new and improved Johnny The Bull Stamboli!"
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli :"Let's move on to Mr. Roboto. Look here, I don't give a damn if you are the best technical wrestler in the xWa, I simply just DON'T GIVE A DAMN!. Yeah, you might be a great wrestler but that doesn't even matter one damn bit, you know the hall of fame? my pretty face will soon be there . Whether, it's today, tomorrow, or 10 years from now, I WILL be up there one day. See Benoit, you are nothing compared to to me I am bigger and better than you, and there is nothing you can do. When I whip you into the ropes and then clothesline you over the ropes, it's going to be over for you. Absolutely nothing you can do when your feet touch the ground, because you'll be eliminated. And then it will be me who's gonna eliminate everyone else, until too, their feet touch the ground, and I wlll be in my glory, in the glory that I, Johnny Stamboli deserve. Benoit, you think that you are a good wrestler, you're wrong. You're nothing compared to me, and on Raw, I will annihilate you, take my word for it, because I will fufill it. I will do everything I have said so far... and that is a promise. You may not believe what I say. My actions will speak louder than my words, eh? See, it isn't going to matter whether you are the last one in the ring, or the third to last, I will eliminate you. Let me tell you this, before anyone else does, don't expect to win this Battle Royal Chris, because I will. You are not better than me, I am better than you. PROVE ME WRONG!!!"
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli :"Now Let's move on to another person in the rumble, Let me talk about a man who I used to respect, a man who I considered the best at one point in my life, Chris Jericho! yeah that's right Chris Jericho. Man you know I never thought I would see you ever again. I guess I was wrong but what really never crossed my mind was seeing you in a Battle Royal match, especially the same Battle Royal that I'm going to be in. you know Chris I still like you but the fact is that if you get in my way during this Battle Royal I will just have to eliminate you, that's what I'm gonna do if we meet in that ring at one point during the match, I will eliminate you I wont hesitate to do it and then I could say I eliminated the great larger than life living legend, Chris Jericho. I will be the next World Heavyweight Champion Chris, not you, not anybody else. Chris, this is my world, you're just living in it."
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli :"Um.. who else is in the match? oh yeah right "THE MAN" Golberg, That's right the little big hairy freak who runs around saying "You're Next", man I'm starting to think with jackasses like this in the match I have this won, I mean all I have to do is piss this guy off and he'll go out of control then I would just easily grab his bald head and throw him over the top rope. Now how hard can that be? I have this match in the bag, it's just going be so easy they need to start giving me challenge. Goldberg is just a joke, To quote Triple H from back in the WWE all Goldberg is is hype.. Hype and nothing else he's not so scary because we fear him.. He's scary because people make him scary, they all think that this is a monster who can take anyone out but the truth is he cant. Goldberg, You need to understand that the xWa isn't about hype, xWa isn't about who you were in the past, the xWa is about who you are now and what can you do. Take me for example, I was just a joke in the wcw and the wwe. Now I'm not, I have said that I'm not many times now but now it's time to prove it. Everyone just hears your name and they automatically think you're the best man to ever live. They all think that you are simply the greatest thing to ever hit wrestling. When people say your name they get scared, and they get fear. Fear which feeds you to be better. But Goldberg, I don't fear you, never have and never will. You just have to face the facts Goldberg. I have reached my prime and now it is my turn to be unstoppable, it is my turn to be the greatest wrestler alive. It is my turn to get all of the attention. Not yours. Give it up Goldberg, because I'm not next, YOU ARE!"
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli :" Alright alright, Man I'm having fun taking everyones quotes, but anyway I see there's a lot more people in the list and well I wont be gettin into everyone because well not all of this guys matter, but let me move on, let me jump up to Shawn Michaels, Shawn Shawn Shawn....When are you going to finally give up and quit? Shawn this isnt your time so just quit damn it! what dont you understand you're done man it's all over for you stop trying to give a fight and give up damn it we all know you dont have it anymore you're just some old fart trying to be cute, you trying to prove that Legends never die but Shawn, they do they all fucking die how stupid can you be to think that Legends can leave on when there's a wrestler such as me, Johnny The Bull Stamboli in the federation? wake up man, get your head out of your ass and realize that you're done that you're washed up and that you will never be successful in life give up dammit. I truly hope after Raw you do realize that it's all over for you because I honestly cant take you, your presence kills me so just go get lost give your self a break, what do you want? you want to hurt your back again? maybe for good heh? so then you cant pick up your kids huh? Shawn, seriously listen to me and give up you have nothing left to lose or win. Your time has passed, it is time to let the new blood take over. And thats all so dont make me retire you and retire your self because if I have to retire you trust me it wont be pretty, it wont be pretty at all."
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli :" Ah man let me see who else is going be in this rumble? oh yeah that's right, Rob Van Dam. The man who calls himself Mr.Pay Per View. Looks like Mr. Five Star over here just like everyone else will have to go down by Johnny The Bull Stamboli. Rob, I heard what you had to say, I heard you run your mouth and claim how you were going to win. Yes, I heard it all Rob. You honestly believe this is your one shot to be the best don't you? you believe that you have what it takes to finally be at the top of the ladder huh? well you can try Rob, you can try all you want but the fact is that it will get you no where. You see I know what you're thinking, you're thinking that you are finally ready to like me go in and hang with the big boys, to go in and be a main eventer. The World Heavyweight Champion, right? well Rob, only one of us can make it there. Only one of us can make it to the top, not both. And Rob, this is my time, not yours, it is my time to climb up to the top. And that's exactly what I intend to do. I am going to climb up to the top and watch you and everyone else stay stuck at the very bottom. This is just my destiny Rob, don't hate it, love it. It is what it is and there is nothing that you can do to change that. Rob, you best stick to the Cruiserweight Division and get the World Heavyweight Championship of your mind because you aren't gettin that any time soon. You aren't going to become the World Heavyweight Champion. Not now and probably never, like I said Rob, it is what it is, and what it is, it's that you wont be World Championship material. Not now not ever, just face fact's Rob. I know it hurts, but no body ever said it wouldnt."
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli :"Anyway, let me get on to different people. Let me talk about the man who everyone thinks is going to win, The Rock. The way I see it is like this, Rock, there's no place for two bulls in here. So Saturday night you're my main target, I am coming after you with all I got, I am going to show you why I am Johnny "the Bull" Stamboli, I am going to show you why you're not a damn bull like you say you are. I am going to show everyone that you're not the great one, Rock, what I do to you tonight words will not be able to describe it; tonight that ring will not be a ring, that ring will be a battle field where only the strong one will survive, where only the biggest and baddest will stand tall and that my friend will not be you. Rock, what I'm going to do on tonight is going to be much more than just brutal, it will almost be like a massacre. A fantasizing blood bath that only could be thought of in explanation or drawing it out on paper for others to see and think of as a terrorist attack plan or something of that nature. With this match being my first match I am going to make sure that nothing stands in my way to victory. You along with the others have absolutely no idea what you're gettin yourself into, you will be given no chances to back down and easily step out of the ring to think about it. Once you step into the ring you will be in there until I decide you could leave. Once you step through those ropes, there is only one possible way out and that's by not showing up or if you all combine forces to try to eliminate me. Might I say, I want to do nothing more but pick at your skull like a dentist does with giving fillings to others teeth. I want to bust you open like stabbing a full milk carton with a sling blade. I want to make sure that you do not leave that ring without having respect for what I do and why I do it. Rock, I'm here to make a name for my self, I am here to show everyone how great I truly am. but Rock, let me tell you something when you and the others step inside that ring there will not be anyone on the face of this earth or any place in outer space who will be able to help anyone of you escape the pain that I issue out to you all. Like I said before I am not really bothered by the other wrestlers in this match, the other wrestlers mean absolutely nothing, they're just bums trying to pull off a win, but Rock, Saturday night I am going to tear you apart like as if you were Spike Dudley and I the Big Show. I hope you prey Rock, cause that's what you're going to have to do, you're actually going to have to do a lot of that. I can assure you that you will never forget this day, you are never going to forget the day that Johnny Stamboli annahiliated you with out one single bit of remorse, the day that Johnny the Bull took you a part and slaped you around like the little bitch that you are, After tonight Rock, I doubt there will be anything left of you to come back next Raw and have a match. If you think I am in anyway bloffing oh man are you wrong, Rock, I am going to be your worse nightmare, I am going to hunt you in your dreams night after night after this match is all set and done, Raw is going to be my time...Saturday night is my damn night you hear me? it's going be my ring, my rules and my mother fucking time you got that champ? "
Johnny then stops and thinks about what he's going to say then begins to speak one last time.
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli :"
"Rock, ten years from now when you have grand kids, and you go and try to pick them up but you cant because you're not that strong anymore, just because your body has nothing left in it, not because you're old but because its ruined, because it's severely damaged you will remember me. And what you can do is put the video tape of Saturdays match and show to them who did that to you, show them who was the sick man that whipped the floor with you all over the arena, you can then tell them that you wished you would've listened to me and not showed up that day, that perhaps if you would've not show your face someone else would've payed the prize and not you; but it will be too late and there wont be a damn thing that you could do about it now. Now you're fucked up for the rest of your life and it's all because of your naiveness, because you thought I was playing around with you and talking shit because I like to. See Rock, thats not what's happening here, what's happening is here is that I'm giving you a chance to not come to the ring Saturday night, to go back to hollywood, so it wont be you who I wipe the floor with, if you're not here on Saturday then Chris Jericho will get the beating of his life. You hear me Chris? you're the other guy I'm going to be aiming at this Saturday night. I'm coming after you because like I said earlier, you're a big threat in this match. The fore I need to take you out Chris. And I have changed my mind, I don't care if you get in my way or not. Fact is, I'm going to kick your ass just like I plan on kicking Rock's ass. You got that Chris? good. Now Chris, don't feel bad, being demolished by me isn't necessarly a bad thing, you know why? of course you dont. It's not a bad thing because everyone else will be demolished by me as well. Some may get it worse, some maybe lucky and not get destroyed that much. But fact is, I am going to be in that ring this Saturday with one thing in mind, and that is becoming the World Heavyweight Champion. Nothing less, nothing more. I will become the World Heavyweight Champion. Dont take my word for it, just watch me in action, just watch me. Because when the shit hits the fan, I will be the last man standing...."
Johnny then laughs a little before the camera goes to pitch black.
Inside The Mind:
It’s been said many times, the people know the match, they know the stipulation, but what they don’t know is how each wrestler truly feels going into this match. You all look at everyone in the Battl Royal speak about one another, say that we’ll win the match, hurt each other and all those other things. But behind those words, inside of us, how do we truly feel? Honestly, I’m a bit worried, but hey everyone’s always worried going into a match, because it’s a fifty fifty chance you’ll win or lose. Everyone in this match is indeed a great wrestler, but I feel everyone's time has passed. Over the past week I have gained a lot of confidence in myself, and I have realized that if I really put my mind to it, I can walk away from this match not only unharmed and fine, but I can walk away the winner. Everyone is going into this match representing eachothers honor, and selfsteem, Stepping into this match I know what is going to happen, I know that alot of this guys in the match have a lot to bring to the table, I know that some of them have just as much talent as me, and everyone else here, but will their talent be able to defeat me? I doubt it. In this match there are some superstars that stick out from all the rest, I have gone over a few before but now it is time for me to talk about those who I havent yet. Kurt Angle, this guy is a threat in this match, a big threat if you ask me. I’ve watched him for the past week and it’s quite obvious Kurt isn’t the same person he once was, and he knows that, but he stills has one thing that’s the same, he still has his arrogance, and he still has his dream that he wants to make come true.This is it, this is the moment I have been waiting for oh so long. You can feel the tension in the air, everywhere you go. The backstage area, the outside, the ring, it doesn’t matter, every single place you go to, you get that feeling, you know Saturday night is going to be big.I know that everyone now thinks I'm some joke who wont do anything ,Yeah sure, I don’t have any big achievements, but I am going to prove everyone wrong. I am going to push my self and prove to the world someting that I have been trying to prove for quite a while, and I am not going to stop until I do it.
Our scene reopens in Staten Island, New York at a catholic elementary school called Our Lady Queen Of Peace. A few children are still running into the school in an attempt to be on time. But through all this one man stands out. As children scurry about past him, Johnny Stamboli slowly walks down the sidewalk without a care in the world. Oddly enough, as Johnny continues down the path he turns in towards the entrance of the school. As Johnny reaches the front door we can hear the late bell go off. He then opens the door and walks into the lobby. In the lobby are many secretaries seated at their desks. Johnny approaches the nearest one, as the woman looks up and smiles.
'not a wrestling fan' Lisa: "Hi there sir, good morning. How can I help you today?"
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli : "I don't think you can help me."
'not a wrestling fan' Lisa: "Well um, then why are you here? Is there something I can help you with?"
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli : "Yea, my car crashed into the lobby of the school, can I use your phone to call a tow? "
'not a wrestling fan' Lisa:"Uh sir, you couldn't have crashed into the lobby, because THIS IS the lobby. "
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli : "It was a joke...wow I try and be a little humorous and I get stuck with dead wood like yourself. "
'not a wrestling fan' Lisa:"Oh, sir do you have a reason for being here? Because if you don't I am going to have to ask you to leave. "
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli : "You know for a catholic school I would have expected a little more respect then this. It figures though, no matter where I go, you're all alike. "
'not a wrestling fan' Lisa:"That's it sir, I am going to ask you to leave one last time, otherwise I am calling security! "
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli : "Do what you must woman. "
'not a wrestling fan' Lisa:"John get over here now! "
The security guard from down the hall hears the secretaries scream and comes swiftly jogging down the hallway.
'the security guard' John:"What seems to be the problem here? "
'not a wrestling fan' Lisa:"This guy just walked in here for no reason and now he wont leave! "
John then looks at Johnny dead in the eye before speaking.
'the security guard' John:"Listen buddy, I am going to ask you nicely to leave and then if you still choose to be stubborn I will remove you myself. "
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli : "Look at you, you're not ready for a fight. You're hardly ready for life. I have seen you're kind before, the type that could really be something in this world if they weren't so afraid of the repercussions, but worst of all if you weren't so afraid of yourself. "
'the security guard' John:""What? Hey listen buddy I don't need you to lecture me, you don't know me. Now either you get out or you're gonna make me do something I don't want to do. "
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli : "Oh I know you, I know you more then you know yourself. You're so afraid of failing in this world that you wont even take the chance. And so you have become a security guard at a lowly elementary school, something even YOU couldn't fail at. Now I dont know what it feels to be a failure but I dont recognize one when I see one,but anyway if you attempt in any way to bring me harm, your limp body wont be a pretty sight for all those children to pass on their way home. "
'not a wrestling fan' Lisa:"Don't just stand there do something! "
The Security Guard just stands there with his head lowered to the floor in shame. Johnny has shown him the truth and it hurts. As the secretary continues to yell at him, Johnny throws a small piece of paper on her desk.
'not a wrestling fan' Lisa:"What is this? "
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli : "Well I don't know, you're a secretary. You read things for a living, try reading it. "
'not a wrestling fan' Lisa:"All it says is Our Lady Queen of Peace Elementary School cordially invites xWa superstar Johnny The Bull Stamboli as our special guest speaker on September 26, 2004. What is this all about? "
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli : "Put two and two together. How did some as slow as you get this job anyway?...If you haven't realized by now, I am Johnny The Bull Stamboli. And Principal Dan Jordan is awaiting my presence. So if you could be as so kindly to show me to his office? "
The secretary frowns at Johnny, she is obviously annoyed with this little game he had played on her. However she reluctantly leads him to Principal Jordan's office. She knocks on the door before entering.
'not a wrestling fan' Lisa:"Principal Jordan, A Mr.Stamboli is here to see you. "
'the principal' Principal Jordan:"Wonderful, thank you Lisa that will be all. "
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli : "Yea, thank you LISA, you've been a great help. "
Lisa narrows here eyes at Johnny in a sarcastic remark before leaving. Johnny then seats himself in the chair across from Principal Jordan's desk.
'the principal' Principal Jordan:"Well Mr.Stamboli, its great to finally meet you. Did you have any trouble finding the school?"
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli : "Nah, it wasn't too hard to find."
'the principal' Principal Jordan:"Let me just say, I being a wrestling fan all my life have great respect for your work."
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli : "Would that be why you asked me to come here today?"
'the principal' Principal Jordan:"Actually no, we were kind of hoping to get the Rock or Shawn Michaels down here, you know someone the kids really look up to. But your company said you were the only one that was willing to show up."
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli : "Figures...none the less I am here. When can we get this thing over with? "
'the principal' Principal Jordan:"The students are making there way to the auditorium as we speak, it shouldn't be long now. Follow me, I will show you to the stage."
Johnny follows Principal Jordan out the door and to the side entrance of the stage of the auditorium. The children are finally all seated and Principal Jordan walks up to the side podium and speaks into the microphone.
'the principal' Principal Jordan:"Alright, settle down now my children. Now I bet you are all wondering why you are here today, aren't you? Well today I have something special for you all. Are any of you familiar with the xWa?..[ most students begin cheering ].. I will take that as a yes. Well if you like the xWa then boy are you in for a surprise. Because your Principal went out of his way to have a xWa superstar come and speak to you all about the truth of sin. Please everyone lets give a warm welcome to our special guest speaker for today, xWa's own Johnny Stamboli!"
Many of the students that were cheering soon fall back into the chairs in disappointment, as Johnny actually gets an ovation of boo's from the elementary school. Johnny walks out from behind the side curtain with a steel chair in one hand and a microphone in the other. He quickly walks to center stage, sets up the chair and sits in it. He slouches down as low as possible and stares into the student body. He just sits their with a blank, determined look on his face as they continue to boo him.
'the fourth grader' "YOU SUCK! WE WANT THE ROCK! YOU SUCK JOHNNY!"
'the fifth grader' "What are you kidding me!? Get out of here, we don't want to see you! WE WANT SHAWN MICHAELS!"
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli : "You say you want Rock,Shawn Michaels, yet they are not here. And if you proceed as such, just remember they wont be here to salvage your pathetic little lifes."
The auditorium quickly quiets down as Principal Jordan looks on in disbelief to Johnny's words.
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli : "Now today I am here to talk to you about sin. And if you want to say anything, and I mean anything, you will wait until I am finished."
'the principal' Principal Jordan:"Umm, well uh. Boys and girls, Johnny will be speaking about the wrongs of sin today. And I suppose that he will be taking any wrestling or non wrestling related questions after his speech. So without further interuption, I am going to hand the stage over to him."
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli : "What is sin? What are these immoral acts that we commit, although we know they are wrong? How can one explain this tendency in which we are most inclined to do harm? Unfortunately, I can not define sin. I can speak only of what it looks like. You see, sin is present when humans hurt one another. When one nation destroys another nation with deadly weapons, that is sin. When we destroy with deadly word, that too is sin. Sin comes in all shapes and sizes, it knows no true form. It can fiery hot like war and fighting, or it can be icy cold like ignoring someone in need. Sin can be very complicated, like the tangled web that is lying. Yet it can also be as simple as yelling at a child who wants attention. Sin is an unfounded burst of anger aimed at someone who meant well. Unfortunately, we find sin splashed across our newspapers...Public officials accept bribes, Children gun down other children without cause, Corporations place profits over people and even Drugs destroying young lifes. What has our world come to where a young child can not play out in the streets for fear of his life?...But sin also lies in the dark corners of our country, resulting in homeless persons seeking shelter in the subways beneath our cities our namesless farmworkers receiving inadequate pay for harvesting the fruits and vegetables that we eat. You see sin is all around us. We encounter it every day. We do not know why it exists but we know little of the reasons why it holds such power over us."
Johnny wipes his face with his hand and stares off for a moment but then continues to speak.
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli : "Ancient wisdom often pointed to selfishness as the root of sin. A misguided placing of our own will and desires. However naming the root of sin does not solve its mystery or destroy its power. But their is another way. There is still hope for such innocence as yourselves. I can bring you there...I can show you salvation. I can weed out the moral from the immoral and so I shall be your savior. You may be too young, your minds not intelligent nor coherent enough to make light of my words. Yet one day you shall understand. One day you will realize the truth of which I speak. On our day of judgment you shall be tested on this very prophecy. Take lightly my words, for it makes no difference, I am no longer in control of your life. You shall learn that the only thing standing between you and salvation...is yourself. "
Reverand Jordan begins to applaud as the children reluctantly do the same.
'the principal' Principal Jordan:"Boys and girls, lets hear it for Mr.Stamboli That was great, I hope you all learned something today. Now I understand a few of you have a few questions for Johnny so I am sure he won't mind, ask away."
A few children raise their hands as Reverand Jordan calls on them to speak.
'the sixth grader'"Hey Johnny, why is it that you hate Shawn Michaels and The Rock so much? I love them, they are some of my favorite wrestlers."
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli : "I can only hope that one day you will realize that this world you live in is fake. The super hero's you watch on television, the loving family you have and people like Shawn Michaels are all fake. They only tell you what you want to hear. Never will they tell it how it really is. You see Shawn Michaels and other xWa superstars want you to like them, they want you to cheer for them. They live for it. It gives them a feeling of acceptance and achievement. And to someone whose mind is not able enough to see through their lies and falsehoods, sees something admirable about them. They see success and happiness and hope they can one day be that, to one day have that. Yet they do not see who the true Rock or even Shawn Michaels are, they can not distinguish what is truly right or wrong. "
'the sixth grader'"But they are the good guys. They love their fans and are really nice people. I think you're just jealous of them."
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli : "Jealous? You think that I, Johnny Stamboli am even remotely jealous of them? My dear boy, you know nothing. Your adolescence makes you think that way. Yet when you grow older you will see the Rock and Shawn Michaels for who they truly are...heartless...and callous...Words in which we use to describe the lowliest of mankind. And yet the are applauded for it. One day you will realize, one day the whole world will realize...but by then it shall be too late."
'another fifth grader' "You are just jealous because you know you can get your butt kicked by them. You're a sore loser and my dad always told me nobody likes a sore loser."
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli : "First and for most, your father is an idiot. He doesn't know me, you don't know me. Neither of your minds could withstand my anguish. And as for me being upset about they being better than me, you know I think you should stop smoking the really green ones, I mean lets be serious why would I be scared of the Rock or Shawn Michaels? look at them their nothing just like you.And just for saying that I am going to make sure that you swallow your own words little bitch, just watch what I will do this Saturday night."
'another fifth grader' "Either way you're still going to get your butt kicked on RAW by someone in the battle royal, you aint winning this Saturday, no chance in hell!"
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli : "You see that is your opinion. I on the other hand, have an opinion of my own. For you see, the odds may be stacked against me, but I won't back down. I won't run or hide from my past or that which awaits me in the near future. This match is more psychological then it is physical. Once a man underestimates his own abilities, it is all down hill from there. But I know no such flaw. My mind is set and set on one thing...the complete anihilation of the parasite those are Shawn Michaels, the Rock and Chris Jericho
."
'another fifth grader' "Yea, yea whatever. I bet once match time comes you won't even step foot in the ring because you'll be so scared."
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli : "Scared? As in the type of fear that you have of the dark?'
'another fifth grader' "I..I..I am not afraid of the dark. Wha..What are you talking about?"
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli : "Sure you're not. Just as I do not fear Shawn Michaels or the Rock. My whole life I have been laughed at and mocked by people like them, all of your little favorite wrestlers. They beat me up, they stole from me, they called me names. And each time...I let them. When they pounded their fists into my face, their were times I could have done something, there were times I could have fought back...but I didn't. My childhood was filled with nothingness, broken promises and hardship after hardship. And sometimes I just felt that is what better to feel something, then nothing...However it was because of people like them that I had to resort to such a lifestyle."
'the principal' Principal Jordan:"I think that's about enough! Boys and girls, I am sorry but Mr.Stamboli must be leaving now. The xWa requests him back immediately. So let's give a warm round of applause for our guest speaker."
Some students clap,while others show no reaction at all. Reverand Jordan grabs Johnny by the shoulder as they both leave the stage.
'the principal' Principal Jordan:"What in the hell was that?!?!"
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli : "What was what?"
'the principal' Principal Jordan:"Those horrible, completely and utterly horrible things you were trying to teach those kids out there! "
Johnny sighs and looks down at the floor without replying to the principal.
'the principal' Principal Jordan:"Well, aren't you going to answer me damn it!"
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli : "I was speaking the truth and you know it. Show me a world of complete normalcy and perfectness and I will retract my words...but you can't and so I won't."
'the principal' Principal Jordan:"They are just kids! None of them more then ten years old. Their parents don't need you filling their heads with that crap."
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli : "No of course not, you would much rather they grow up in a world where everything is supposed to be righteous. You fill a youths mind with such lies and the first immoral act upon them that they feel or see, will scar them for life. I did not do anything wrong out there. I tried to show them how the world really is, instead of trying to blanket them with false hope like yourself."
'the principal' Principal Jordan:"I don't believe you! Get out of my school! Get out now! And I can assure you that the xWa administration will be hearing about this!"
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli : "Do what you must, for it shall not change the very thought you just can't erase from your mind can it? The fact that I may have reached some of those youths and changed their lifestyle forever is playing with your conscience isn't it?"
'the principal' Principal Jordan:"Get the fuck out now!"
Johnny 'The Bull' Stamboli : "Ha, and I thought the clergy wasn't supposed to swear, fair enough though...say goodbye to the children for me."
Johnny then leaves the office the as he is going out he cracks up, the scene then ends.
