-The footage begins to roll with a sizzling sound in the background. A steam filled kitchen area is the scene where four men are dressed in white chef uniforms standing in front of an island counter positioned in the middle of the room.. Their arms move rapidly at the elbows as they move back and forth performing some type culinary preparation technique that is hidden from view. Stainless steel kitchen appliances line the walls and white tile covers the floor to create a sterile appearance to the environment. Behind the line of laboring cooks walks "The Angry Chef" Emilio Ramirez. He is dressed in similar fashion to that of the other chefs, but wears no hat upon his head. In addition, Ramirez calmly walks behind the line of men with his hands clasped behind his back and his bowed as he glances at the floor beneath his feet.-
Emilio Ramirez: Saturday September Twentieth, Two Thousand Eight. New Orleans Arena. New Orleans, Louisiana. Years from now when I look back on my professional wrestling career. When I look back at my accomplishments in this sport and more specifically, my accomplishments in The Wrestling Domain it will be on that day, in that city, in that arena that I can say things started looking up for "The Angry Chef". After months of defeat and failure, Emilio Ramirez stepped into the squared circle with Terry Dane against two individuals they probably weren't supposed to beat. Team chemistry and egos took the odds and threw them out the window. And now the Emilio Ramirez you see is a man revived. More importantly, I'm a competitor revived. And in two weeks, I get the opportunity to officially welcome Rob Blondie to The Wrestling Domain ex-undefeated club.
-Ramirez gets several feet beyond the final cook and stops talking long enough to turn around and begin walking in the opposite direction. As he passes the first individual, Emilio steps between two of the cooks getting their attention.-
Emilio Ramirez: Straight cut Jose. Keep your wrist perpendicular to the counter. No angle.
-One of the men nods at Ramirez's statement and continues his work as Emilio steps away from him. "The Angry Chef" continues his walk, giving a quick glance over his shoulder at the camera as if to ensure the focus of the cameraman.-
Emilio Ramirez: Don't get ahead of me Rob. I mean no disrespect. When I use the word opportunity, that's exactly what I mean. I know the fans like you. I know the guys in the back respect you. And that's why I see this as a genuine opportunity. I have a feeling that at some point in your career, Rob, you found yourself in the situation I find myself in now. Going up against a more experienced, a more popular, a more confident opponent. You may have experienced this situation multiple times before walking away victorious, but when that moment came in which you stood over your opponent with your hand raised in victory you knew that you had turned the corner on your wrestling career. Such is my aim Rob. As daunting as the climb may seem, I see you as a stepping stone to bigger and better things for Emilio Ramirez.
-Ramirez turns back to the camera with his hands still connected behind his back. Glancing over at the men in chef uniforms as once again he continues to walk.-
Emilio Ramirez: This is good for you. This will prepare you for much greater challenges. This is good.
-Emilio looks away from the backs of the men and in the direction of the camera. He begins to speak as he pulls his right hand in front of his body, waving a finger in one swift motion.-
Emilio Ramirez: Don't worry about your previous reputation. I don't need you to be goofy or lovable or arrogant. All I need is for you to be standing in the ring with that bell rings. I'm not interested in your backstories. I have no comment on your feud with Raymond "Kingpin" Jones. I'm NOT planning on being your enemy for life. I'm just looking for a fight. You said Pat Martin tried to temporarily quench your thirst for blood in scheduling against the guys he did in your first TWD contest. Now, I'm offering you that same opportunity again. Rob Blondie, come take my blood, come make me feel your pain and in doing so you will have finalized that opportunity of which I've already spoken. That's right, Rob, I'm ASKING for your killer instinct. I'm asking, Rob, because I don't want there to be any excuses when Emilio Ramirez turns the corner on HIS wrestling career.
-Ramirez has walked within a couple feet of the camera before he finishes speaking. Once becoming silent, "The Angry Chef" simply stares into the camera with a look of intensity. Seconds later, the TWD Superstar turns from the camera and again begins his walk back behind the line of chefs. The shot then goes black.-
