Barry Savage sits in his den in his Sweetwater home. The walls are adorned with mementos of his past achievements … Barry takes great solace in his past achievements but knows what has been done can be undone with a a couple of thoughtless acts. So is that what is happening … Savage pretty much has walked out on his commitments to be the Director of Talent relations and has become the strong arm of reason in the TWD? How ironic is that. Savage has spent much of his career doing exactly what he is trying to stop. He is trying to put order into a place that has none ..
How sweet the taste of bitter irony ..
So when did he change …. Or did he .. could it be that the industry has changed so much that what was in the day is not what it is now .. wow now that’s a good chunk of change.
Barry sits back in his chair and takes a deep breath .. soon he thinks to himself .. very soon he will step in the ring .. first time in years .. now hows that going to be .. if all else fails he could rake Luger’s eyes with his ring rust.
Savage: So .. how times have changed eh Kersh … I remember when you brought me here and told me how things were going to be .. the way we had always dreamed of .. the way things should be. SO what happened old friend. What has happened to you and that slack ass Martin. Your better than that Brent .. you are now a shadow of the man I used to stand beside .. a man I fought along so long ago you are … different. Maybe your not the problem Brent maybe I am the one who is and did not change . Maybe …. But you know what Brent .. Mr Kersh .. Enforcer .. I like me, the way I am I do not need to change .. my motives are still the same as they always were .. shock value .. more bang for the buck Do you really think Haney kept me around for so many years because he liked me .. give your crossed eyed girlfriend a shake . I get the job done and I bring people through the doors .. I AM RATINGS.
Barry grins and giggles to himself a little .. ver reminiscent of the old days .. the beginning years .. he wipes his graying goatee and continues
Savage: That old man Haney if he had his way would have sent me packing two weeks after I started .. but after beating Midnight in my debut match .. the Doc and another guy who is long gone. He saw hoe much cash I would bring him in the coming years .. and then I joined those MOD jackasses .. what a waste of skin they were .. Haney almost canned me again after I joined those losers and why did I do it .. because I knew it would get his goat and push him over the line. But again he saw that I used the MOD to catapult myself into the limelight and again he gained and I drew more people in the doors. Brent you and Martin both know that I will do what it takes to get what I want .. I do what it takes to get the job done .. in my time I think I have paid out as much in fines as I have made in this sport . Well except when Haney decided to pay me to hurt people .. those were the days .. getting paid to hurt the guys who would not fall in line .. but that was then and this is now .. and how now is going to be like then .. say that three times fast sweetheart.
Savage gets up and stretches .. he walks over to a small fridge , he opens it and pulls out a can of BUD and cracks it open and takes a drink. He grins as he sits back down ..
Savage: So where do we begin .. that’s right .. Thomas Luger .. that is where we begin .. Original King of Wrestling .. Luger if you even had half the inclination of what that meant you would be heads and tails above the rest .. you have no right or even a leg to stand on when it comes to a moniker like “Original King of Wrestling “ .. you could team up with Steve Lombardi and you would be no closer in comparison than Adam Young is .. Luger you are weak and no more than a cut rate bully .. you have done what ever you have wanted at every turn and it makes me sick to think that it is guys like you that run the asylum as it stands right now. An asylum that was created by Martin and Kersh .. give the prisoners an inch and they will pretend they are Ron Jeremy staring with Jenna Jameson. That is where I have entered into the equation Tom .. you want to run around and do what ever the hell you want without repercussions … go get a job at one of the other two bit places or better yet try Burger King … you are more a Burger King than a Wrestling King anyhow .. you are not any better than you were back in the TWF when I was hired to put over the talent there .. yea thats right I did the “job” to a lot of you punks to make the man happy .. paid the bills then and kept me in shape .. not that round isn’t a shape but looking at your wife you already know that.
Barry takes another swig from the can of BUD and then crushes the can .. he wipes his face and continues
Savage: For the rest of the roster .. you think and old guy like me can cut it … wait and see ‘cause I could care less what you stupid bastards think .. you can come at me with your cut rate rants with a few colorful metaphors in them because with what I have seen that is about what most of you are worth .. drop a couple of fbombs .. why your at it cry ECW five or six times .. that kept their jobs too and Paul Heyman got rich from it .. or wait .. no he lost everything . but damn cult followings or colorful tirades are sweet ain’t they ? You want to see a sample of what is to come .. take a look at the old Justus vs Savage matches .. sub a man with no talent instead of Justus that represent any of you and you will get a glimpse of what is to come and what I am capable of. Punks I am going to show all of you what happens when you buck the system the TWD is broken right now and I am going to fix it .. I am going to lay the law down and anyone who steps out of line is going to get put in their place .. in the process I am going to do what I do best .. kick the living shit out of a few arseholes who are in desperate need of it .. take a look around .. look over your shoulder and remember one thing .. you hear a loud noise in the night it might be me because I am the original Nightmare .. I am the one who you will see when you close your eyes .. prepare yourselves boys … Luger you are in for a SAVAGE END !
Camera fades as Savage grins and giggles at the camera ..
