We see a plate of a perfectly seared ribeye steak on a plate with a knife and fork to the side. We see hands grab the fork and knife and cut a piece and as the person eats it we see it is Slim at the dining table by himself. He chews it up and swallows.
Slim:
Perfection. Usually I would say nothing is better than a perfectly grilled steak but after Scion… I have to say there might be something slightly better. And that is proving some ignorant punk ass wrong. Someone that thought they were going to shut me up. Just like so many others have for so many years. I’ve heard it all before… you’re on roids, you’re making shit up, you’re not really as good as you think you are. Or my favorite… his legacy is something like pissants like me couldn’t match if my life depended on it. And then even took the time to shoot down my actual history of dealing with politics and thinking I was just whining about not being good enough. So nice.
He pauses as he takes another bite.
Slim:
Damn this is good. I really outdid myself. Just like in the tag match against… the fabled Fallen Angels as they were supposed to be one of the best teams out there and well… they faced off against a team that joined up for the first time and on top of that… I didn’t even like the bitch. I mean I would have been just fine watching her get her ass kicked but you just had to open your mouth didn’t you Damon. And look at what happened. The Lesser Graves lives up to his name as he once again fails. He once again comes up short and I’m sure Kelsi will go on about how she did it by herself and how she was so lethal and that will help her beat your wife but that’s the sad part in this. Your wife was one of the few undefeated wrestlers left in FPW and then she got stuck teaming with you and you let your ego get the best of you thinking that I made everything up and you’re so much better. She even tried to reiterate how I should be concerned having to deal with you but see here is the thing… you’ve always been the one that believes their own hype. Thing is I’ve come across so many wrestlers in my travels that are just like you. Hold on a second.
Slim then takes two bites and savors it as he then takes a drink of water from his cup.
Slim:
Good food like this just can’t go to waste. But talent… well that’s a different story and you’re one of those. Just like my soon to be opponent Andrew Raynes. By the way good job on your win. Countering the poisonrana the way you did to get the pin… that was slick. Maybe you could teach Damon a thing or two about how to win. But you know what… enough about him. I’ll deal with him later. Right now… you’re in my sights and you’re taking a bigger step up in competition than someone like Omar Mesias. You’re facing off against one of the top stars in FPW. I mean there is no need to mention my many accomplishments before I retired years ago and came back and still showing I still got it. The fact is Andrew… maybe… just maybe you’re hoping that I’m overlooking you but sadly that won’t work.
As a true vet in this business I know to focus always on the task at hand… even though right now its my steak… at Scion its you. And I’m going to be teaching you a thing or two about how things are done in that ring. I know you got some slick counters so I’ll be watching for that but just know… I got a few of those tricks up my sleeve as well. I’m pretty sure I have tricks that you haven’t even seen but… oh wait…
Slim takes the final couple bites of his steak as he looks at his empty plate with satisfaction.
Slim:
You see Andrew… there are many ways to win and there are plenty ways to get inside the head of your opponent and throw them off their game. Just look at my main event tag match. Kelsi got the pin but I did the work that got things in motion. Sometimes that’s what it is all about. Making sure that you do everything that is necessary to secure that win and I know… I know that you’re going to give it your all because you want to prove that you’re one of the best here and that’s admirable at best. You keep things simple. You had a modest room and everything. Me… yeah I live it up. I earned it. Me and my wife worked hard for over a decade to get this lifestyle we have. We enjoy it but as much as we enjoy it… something I enjoy more is steaks. Maybe I’ll fire one up for ya. But something else I do enjoy very much is kicking ass. And last week I wasn’t able to get a pin or submission so this time… I’m looking to do just that. Unfortunately for you you’re going to have to suffer your second defeat in this promotion.
You’re not someone I’m going to look to make an example out of for Damon though no. You… you’re just someone in the wrong place at the wrong time and facing off against the wrong person. But consider this a moment to truly test yourself against one of the best that this industry has ever seen. A chance to really put your skills to the test and see where you really rank. Because I’m going to tell you right now… its beneath me.
He gets up from the table and takes his plate and silverware to the kitchen as he rinses the plate off before placing it in the dishwasher and starts it up.
Slim:
Andrew… welcome to your true test in FPW. I look forward to hearing from you soon. But for now I’m going to go train some more.
And with that Slim starts to head down to the basement as the scene fades to black.
