SCENE ONE:
PWX Do Or Die
August 21st 2013
Chris: Well what a hard fought match between two of the best PWX has ever seen!
Ricky: I got to give credit where credit is due. That was an absolute THRILLER of a match!
Chris: Oh no doubt about that! I just wonder...hey, what's going on?!
[The lights in the ring start to dim a few times as Hollywood and Pariah look up and around as they try to figure out what the hell is going on. Just then, a voice is heard coming over the speakers. The voice isn't recognizable as it is being concealed very well by a voice concealer device.]
Voice: Well done Mr. Hollywood and Mr. Pariah. What a wonderfully heart felt fight you two had!
[The voice pauses for a few moments.]
Voice: Oh I'm sorry, maybe it's about time I at least make clear who I am..
[Hollywood and Pariah look at each other confused.]
Voice: Allow me to FINALLY introduce myself, I am your PWX Management!
Chris: WHAT?!
Ricky: So finally, there is a voice to all these rumors about a higher power, but who?!
PWX Management: That was a glorious match you two put on! I was very happy and very proud of what I saw...until I saw the outcome of this match.
[Mixed crowd reactions can be heard in the background.]
PWX Management: You see, you think you are smarter than me! You think because this match ended in a no contest that everything is just going to be alright. Well you see gentlemen, I happen to not believe in the whole draw match..you either win or you lose. There are no draws..I don't believe in them. Therefore...
Chris: What the hell is this guy getting at?
Ricky: I don't know but it can't be good.
[Hollywood and Pariah simply look towards the back as they await the next words.]
PWX Management: By the power invested in, well me, I hear by declare that this match, there is no such thing as a no contest. No, you see, since you both couldn't get the job done on either man, I've decided that NEITHER of you deserve this kind of ending. So pretty much, you both...LOSE!
Chris: Oh no! Please don't!
Ricky: I don't like where this is going..
PWX Management: Oh you guys know exactly how this is going to play out. By not being a fan of no contests, I expect results and the results are about to play out. Wait for it...
[The crowd start to boo as the voice pauses]
PWX Management: Congratulations Brian Hollywood and John Pariah, for not getting the job done! No Contests means that you both LOSE! And seeing that you both lose, you know what happens next don't you? As of right now, Brian Hollywood and John Pariah you are no longer part of the PWX roster! Your both finished! You lose, and your finished! Because BOTH of your careers are over!!
Chris: WHAT?! WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT?!
Ricky: I can't believe what I'm hearing?! BOTH Brian Hollywood and John Pariah are now gone from PWX?! This is not good Chris!
Crowd: THAT IS BULLSHIT! THAT IS BULLSHIT!
[Hollywood and Pariah just stare at each other in utter shock and disbelieve. They cannot believe what they just heard. Hollywood drops his head in shame and shakes his head in disgust. Pariah clenches his fists and throws it into the corner turnbuckle. Hollywood looks up this time with an angered, but lost look in his eyes.]
PWX Management: I wish the both of you the very best in whatever you find to do! HAHA! Now if you'll excuse me, I've got a company to help run. At least the cancers of it have been eliminated with extreme force!
[PWX Management fade away as Hollywood and Pariah are left lost in the ring. Pariah pats Hollywood on the back and both men take center ring. The crowd is absolutely on their feet as they give tribute to both PWX icons.]
Crowd: THANK YOU HOLLYWOOD! THANK YOU PARIAH! THANK YOU HOLLYWOOD! THANK YOU PARIAH!
[Both Hollywood and Pariah nod in acknowledgement of the crowd responds as they wave their hands. Hollywood and Pariah smile and pay tribute to the crowd as they make their way out of the ring. They walk around the ring giving out high fives and handshakes to the crowd before finally ascending up the ramp. Both men turn back around and look about the fans for the final time. Hollywood and Pariah, both carrying tremendous pain, turn back around and slowly make their ways back to the back.]
Chris: What an absolute heartbreaking situation we just learned! It was just announced by the PWX Management that since neither Hollywood or Pariah won the match that BOTH of their careers are over. What a sad day in PWX.
Ricky: I sensed that Hollywood may have known this day was coming. Now he knows for sure. I'm still shocked by how PWX Management pretty much found a way to end both Brian Hollywood and John Pariah. That definitely can't be good and we don't even know who's behind it!
Chris: One things fore sure, these two men just created a pennacle that will be talked about for ages to come. Two men, two icons, two hall of famers who can't be duplicated in PWX. Hollywood, Pariah..you both will be greatly missed..thank you both for everything you've done for this place and the sacrifices you made to keeping PWX the best it can be!...
They say you can never go home again. For me now, that's true. PWX has been my home since 2005. No other name is as synonymous with PWX as I am. Now, all of that is over-it's time for me to answer that final question that I'm constantly asked. What do I do AFTER PWX? Is there life after death? Is there life after the PWX Faithful?
[The scene fades into the driveway in front of John Pariah's house. John is standing in his yard-throwing a ball across it, watching his siberian husky chase the ball. The camera pans over to a little bench, where his five year old daughter Madison is sitting-drawing feverishly.]
Serenity. Peace. Is this all that I have now? It's not so bad…
John Pariah: Come on Joker, bring it back. That's a good boy.
[He drops to a knee, as his dog runs up to him.]
Madison: Daddy, can I play with Jokey?!?!?
John Pariah: Sure. Here, toss this and he'll bring it back to you.
[She hops up and grabs the ball, lightly tossing it while giggling. The dog retrieves the ball, and brings it back to her-and this process repeats. He walks over to the garage, and grabs a bottle of water as Lillith Morgan walks out, wearing a pair of shorts and a tank top.]
Lillith Morgan: I forgot how random the seasons are here.
[He smiles-as she watches their daughter play with the dog.]
Lillith Morgan: I see you're taking to him.
John Pariah: You know I'm more of a cat person.
Lillith Morgan: Hah. so is the dog, he LOVES your cat.
John Pariah: This feels right…
Lillith Morgan: What does?
John Pariah: The three of us. Here, together, at peace.
[He comes up behind her and puts his arm around her.]
John Pariah: Maybe retirement isn't so bad.
Lillith Morgan: I'm still technically the Director of Competition in PWX dear-and you? You have a phone call to return?
[She hands him his iPhone, and he see's a missed call from Angelo Valour.]
I've been skirting this issue with this guy for ages now. I'm retired, can't I just be in peace?
John Pariah: You want me to call him?
Lillith Morgan: I would…but I'm going for a swim.
[She pulls her tank top off as she disappears into the house. He sighs as he looks at his phone, seeing a flurry of missed text messages from Angelo.]
Madison: Daddy, when are you going to wrestle again?
[She asks this as she runs up to him and hugs his leg. He sighs as he drops to a knee-and gives her a hug.]
John Pariah: Well, I might be soon. Daddy needs to call this guy, why don't you head around back and get ready to go jump in the pool with Mommy.
[He kisses her forehead, as she grabs Joker's leash and they run around the house. The camera quickly cuts inside, as Lillith is looking out the window, with a tear rolling down her face. She grabs her phone and brings up Siri.]
Lillith Morgan: Siri, text James.
Siri: What would you like to say to James Silkk?
Lillith Morgan: I can't do this anymore James. I'm sorry.
Siri: Do you want me to send the message?
[She pauses-and looks out the window as John calls Angelo back.]
Lillith Morgan: Yes Sir, send it please.
Siri: Sending……Message Sent.
[We fade to black as she heads toward the back of the house.]

SCENE TWO:
February 20th 2013. Osaka, Japan. When Pariah met Hunt…
Pariah looks shocked, as he lifts him up and sets him up again. Hunt battles out, and lifts Pariah onto his shoulders, dropping him with a Go 2 Sleep as the crowd pops again.
Chris Caudill: G2Z from Hunt! What the hell?
Hunt rolls Pariah up into the cover:
ONE!!
TWO!!!!!
THREE----KICKOUT!!!!
Chris Caudill: There is no quit!
Hunt lifts him up, and makes a cut throat motion across his neck.
Alexis Lace: TWO MINUTES REMAIN!!
Hunt lifts Pariah up, and sets him up for one more Rumors Starting. As he twists around, Pariah grabs his arms and lifts him up with a Full Nelson, and drops him with a cutter.
Ricky Cravate: REAL TIME INERTIA!! NO WAY!!
Chris Caudill: I haven't seen Pariah use that move in years!
Pariah rolls Hunt into the pin:
ONE!!!
TWO!!!!!
THREE!!!!!!
Chris Caudill: ITS OVER!!
That was the first time we met, back in February. You showed me something that night Timothy. You showed me that I didn't need the weapons, that I could be the better man-and I was just that. I out wrestled you. I proved why they've given me the moniker of the King of Wrestling. Than, we did the dance again.
July 10th 2013, The second encounter. Chicago, IL
[He swings him up and over-dropping him face first on the mat. He rolls Hunt over into a cover-and orders Hollywood to make the count.]
Chris Caudill: Hollywood slow to the count.
John Pariah: Make the count you son of a bitch…
[Hollywood drops to the mat:
ONE!
TWO!!!!!
THREE---Hunt gets his foot on the bottom rope. Pariah looks pissed as he gets up-and gets right in Hollywoods face. The two argue as Hunt shakes the cobwebs and gets to his feet. Hollywood shoves Pariah-and delivers the Executive Promise as the crowd explodes. Pariah stumbles back as Hunt catches him and hits the Rumors Starting. The crowd roars as Hunt rolls into the cover, they even count with Hollywood:
ONE!!
TWO!!!!
THREE!!!!!
THe bell rings as Hunt holds up his arms-and Hollywood raises them in victory. Hunt poses on the ropes as the crowd cheers. Talon checks on Pariah, and gets in the face of Hollywood.
[The video pauses, and loops back, as we zoom out. We see John Pariah sitting in a desk chair-watching both matches in a loop on a pair of monitors. He sighs, turning the chair around and gazing into the camera.
John Pariah: On that night Tim, you proved yourself to be the better man. You showed the world that you could survive a war with me. Now, on September the 8th-we will have one more match. The fans can finally see who the better man is. I awoke the beast in you Timothy, and I couldn't be more honored for us to step into the ring together.
[He sits back and smiles.]
John Pariah: Being forced from my home in PWX? Maybe it's not such a bad thing. I sat back and watched Canadian X Pro's first event, I even filmed a little package and send it away to air this past Monday Night. I said something in that video-that should hold some value now. I'm here to start a new. I'm here to open a new chapter in my life-and how fitting that I bookend my old life, with a victory over one of the best men I've ever stepped in the ring with.
[He chuckles as he leans forward.]
John Pariah: Mr. Hunt, you and I bring out the best in each other. While you have your PWX World Title shot looming in the future, I come here to start fresh, to start a new chapter, hell to start a whole new book! In PWX, my career was dead. I was the prop they carted out to appease the people. Here? In Canadian X Pro? I am reborn. It's fitting that this companies logo is that of a phoenix, because just like the phoenix, I will burn you. Just like when the phoenix force engulfed the body of one Jean Grey, I can be a force of good, a protector, a savior. Or on the other hand Tim-and you can recount this first hand-I can be the Dark Phoenix. I can set the world ablaze, I can be the destroyer of worlds. I'm not Tsukasa, I know why I'm journeying to these other worlds. The question is-do you?
[He laughs, and than grows silent.]
John Pariah: My name is John Pariah…and I am the King of Wrestling. The Best of the Best, Chicago's Finest. Timothy Hunt-we dropped a bomb on Osaka, and we set fire to Chicago. Now, we cross the border-and unleash hell in Canada. This is our rubber match Timothy…and trust me when I say this. I can be all those things-but I can also be the Black Market Hero, I can also be the Destroyer of Worlds….I can also be your worst nightmare. My destiny here in Canada has yet to be written, and it will be forged by me-soley-by me. This event is all about legacy, its all about Legacy Rules…as a former multiple time Pure Wrestling Champion-I know a little thing or two about Legacy Rules. I know how to wrestle, I know how to bend your body in ways it shouldn't naturally bend. I will make you submit, I will make your body break, all in the name of this sport, and all in the name of competition.
[He smiles, leaning back in the chair.]
John Pariah: Timothy…when the Legacy Tour is over-I will be the one standing tall. I will be the one shining in the darkness, and I will be Legacy Champion. We've met twice, and this is our third encounter. We each have a victory over the other and on September 8th-may the best man win. There will be Controversy in Canada, I can promise you that. But Tim, rest assured, my fate is mine to decide-and its already been written. I am the Golden Knight of Pro Wrestling, I am the King of Wrestling, and I will be Legacy Champion…..
[He smirks-as he turns the chair around, and we fade to black.]
