[Fade in on Diablo, sitting in a chair in a nondescript hotel room, looking at the lineup for his debut show]
Diablo: I can't.. seem to get away from these jerks.
[Rips up the paper and tosses it behind him]
Diablo: It seems everytime I go somewhere.. some little jobber from my past needs to follow me.. It's an unhealthy obsession, one would think.
Jake Phoenix.. Donovan Astros... they were big names once.. hell.. they were big names when I made my debut years ago.. and they were old already.
And now they are even older. Maybe I should be careful wrestling these geezers.. I might break their hip or something.
Now..
[Diablo reaches over and presses a button. A TV in the background turns on and you see Donovan Astro's face staring back at you.]
Diablo: It seems that Donovan Astros blathered something earlier.. what was it?
[The frozen images starts to play]
Astros's smirk turns into a deep snarl.
ASTROS - And Diablo... the forsaken one, child of the night, and a very dangerous customer in the ring in his own right. He's no leader of men, though, like Donovan Astros, no no no! He's a follower, a coattail rider, hitching his star here and there to the next best thing. Diablo, there's only been one person willing to follow you, and that's that succubus you keep in your corner, Demona.
[Diablo turns quickly.. picks up the television.. and throws it against the wall]
Diablo: You see? He couldn't be content just talking about me.. Oh no.. he had to go and start on my .. well.. let's just say really good friend. What is he? Jealous? But of whom? Demona.. or me? From the locker room chatter I heard back in the other places.. well.. I should fear for my... well.. let's just not go there.. I just hate thinking about that. As for the rest of his verbal diarrhea.. well.. "Child of the Night". What crap. Just because my name means Devil in spanish, just because of what I had to do and act in the past.. good old Sports Entertainment.. it's ruined everything. People look and think "ooh it's Diablo.. he's evil.. dark.. spooky.. likes to hide in dark corners and write bad poetry". It's all bull crap.
[Diablo glares into the camera]
Diablo: And you know what? I could care less. I'm not here for you to understand me. I am here to kick ass and rule over you pitiful people.
And now for something completely different. Astros, they say those who can't.. teach. You see.. the last time I saw old' Astros.. he was teaching these kids how to wrestle.. so.. that ring rust must be awfully thick.
[Diablo starts to grin]
Diablo: and then.. there's Jake "F'n" Phoenix. The less said about him, the better... His ego is so big.. there isn't room for anything else in that head of his.. He's got no smarts
[Diablo starts to mimic Phoenix]
Diablo: Me Jake Phoenix.. me like to wrestle... Fire Bad....
[Diablo starts to laugh]
Diablo: I am eagerly awaiting to see if Mr Phoenix can put two to three words together to respond. So on that note.. I would like to apologize to NAPW for this dastardly duo that is now infecting this wonderful place, but it needed to be done. I needed to show you all what may happen in your future.. and may you all be resigned to that fate. For this is what the devil does....
