The arena lights slowly dim until the entire arena is plunged into darkness. The crowd roars with anticipation as flashbulbs go off all over the arena, hoping to catch a glipse of something they aren't supposed to see. All of a sudden a giant flash of green fire erupts skyward in front of the entryway followed by the expected boom. "Last" by Nine Inch Nails blasts from the speakers and an eerie green light saturates the arena. Stepping out from behind the curtain to a large ovation is Vertigo. He is wearing a pair of jeans and green silk shirt. On his arm is his wife "Beautiful" Brooke Sage in her own street clothes.
The pair walk slowly toward the ring while Vertigo does something that is both unprecidented and shocking, he is acknowledging the fans. He slaps high fives and points at some of the better signs in the crowd with a smile on his face. He holds Brooke's hand to help her ascend the ringsteps then rolls under the bottom rope. The couple share a quick kiss before he sits on the second rope to allow her easier access to the ring. The music cuts out and the arena light return to normal when he gives a quick cut motion to the camera. Brooke hands him a microphone while he pushes his sunglasses up onto his forehead.
Vertigo raises the mic up to speak but stops because the crowd have started up a 'Welcome Back' chant. He composes himself for a moment before raising up the microphone again.
"Thank you all for that warm welcome. Since I came back at Wheel of Fate I've recieved numerous phone calls, text messages, e-mails and various messages asking me if I'm back for good or if it was just a one-shot return. The conclusion I've come to has taken me a long time to reach.Since I've been gone the past year has been a difficult one. I've suffered in a wheelchair and toiled away in endless hours of physical therapy. I've undergone a number of surgeries to repair the broken neck that Luke Devlin gave me.
"But the hardest part has been the helplessness. Having to watch my children without being able to crawl around on the floor with them, not being able to run after them when call for help or cry out in the night. Not being able to properly show my wife how much I truly care about her. Hell, not being able to walk my dog or use a set of stairs. Watching EFF Dash eliminate the possibility of revenge by forcing Luke Devlin into retirement. Taking painkillers from my surgeries while painstakingly trying not fall into addiction as I have so many times before.
"Even enduring the dirty looks from people who recognized me and couldn't think anything other than that I deserved my fate for my past actions. If I were to come back full-time, the odds re-injuring my neck increase dramatically. I'm just not so sure that I can go through all of that again. Brooke has been a saint and I don't want to put her through all of that again. Maybe those people were right. Maybe I deserve to sit on the sidelines from now on and just watch. What do you people think?"[/color]
The crowd roars and begins a chant of 'please don't go'.
"Well I can't argue with those numbers. I'm back!"[/color]
The crowd erupts in its approval and Vertigo smiles broadly. Vertigo grabs one of Brooke's hands and they both raise up their arms, posing at each side of the ring. But as Vertigo and Brooke pose, Scott Starnes slips into the ring behind them. He rushes up and dumps Brooke over the top rope and to the floor. Vertigo turns around right into the Starnes Slam leaving him writhing on the mat. Scott Pulls him back up and hit him with another Starnes Slam, knocking him out cold. Scott calmly reaches down to pick up the microphone that Vertigo had dropped. The crowd boos him mercilessly.
"Our little game isn't over. Welcome back."
Scott poses over Vertigo's unconscious body and "Binge" by Papa Roach rips over the speakers. The fans chant 'you suck' as Longshot goes to commercial.

Early today
Lucas Wright is in the interview area and standing next to him is "The Rose" Elisha Knight.
Elisha you're in the Woman's Championship tournament tonight to get another shot at Arrianna Lyra how do you feel about facing Hennessy tonight?
Elisha smiles
Arrianna I have to give you props, you are one tough bitch and I underestimated you. However now that I know what you can do I will not make that mistake again. Arrianna I'm hungry for that belt again and I'm going to make sure I get it back. Hennessy you are the unlucky bitch that's in my way tonight and I feel sorry for you.
You are very confident Elisha so do you think you can beat Arrianna if you get through?
Of course, I'm not going to fight my way through this tournament to lose Lucas
Behind Elisha and Lucas Big Bertha is sneaking up with a steel chair in her hands.
Unaware Elisha continues talking but is smacked in the back of the head with the steel
Bertha shoves Lucas out of the way and batters Elisha even more with the chair
She picks up her head, which is now covered in blood, then smashes it off the floor. She picks it up again and wipes blood from it then licks her hand clean of the crimson liquid. Bertha licks her lips showing she enjoys the taste.
She picks Knight up to her feet, grabs her by the throat and lifts her high in the air. Bertha walks over to the buffet table with Elisha hanging in the air. Bertha then slams her through the food and solid wooden table.
She picks up a big piece of chocolate cake and rams it in her own mouth
ARRIANNA! MY CHAMPIONSHIP!
Bertha walks away as the camera lens is splattered with chocolate cake.

(After the Starnes/Vertigo altercation)
Scott Starnes makes his way through the curtain to the backstage leaving behind a sea of booing fans.
Lucas Wright catches him as he comes through sticking a Mic to his mouth
Starnes grabs the mic but throws Lucas to the floor and kicks him in the behind, he crawls away.
That was just a taste of things to come Vertigo! You come back here tonight moaning and crying to these fans and of course they ate it all up because they're naive and don't know any better. Well Vertigo you succeeded in winning them over but make no mistake I have NO sympathy for you. All you are doing is reminding me of a certain old man who used the same playing card and now he sits at home in a chair with a cane at one side of him and a bottle of painkillers at the other. THAT WAS BECAUSE OF ME!
You piss and moan that you can't chase your kids or crawl around with them. You should be grateful that you can still lift them and kiss them goodnight but I swear to you Vertigo if you come back here I will make sure you won't even be able to do that. Not only will I cripple your legs again but I will cripple your spine, your neck, your arms. You will be a vegetable and then what will your kids think of you? I'll tell you what they'll think, they'll think their Daddy was a selfish man who thought of nobody but himself. A man who would rather have one last run than stay at home and play with his young children. They won't blame me for putting you in that state, no, they'll blame you for not staying with them when you had the chance. A leopard never changes his spots Vertigo you will ALWAYS be the selfish man we know you are.
I'm sick of these old washed up wrestlers wanting one more run in the limelight. YOUR TIME IS OVER! it's time for the young athletes to rise up and take over, athletes like me! and I'll be damned if your going to stop me. The odds of you being re-injured aren't going to rise dramatically Vertigo that WILL happen if you stay here and face me.
What happened out there was just a warning and I advice you take it and leave. Nobody will think any less of you, not that they could anyway. LEAVE!
Starnes throws down the Mic and walks away.

JLA is his locker room punching the punching bag and looking at the clock.
JLA- " Where the hell is he"
JLA's punches become more intense and harder. JLA yells frusteratedly and chucks the table over knocking over all the sports drinks and junk on the table to the ground. Jacob Anwar bursts through the door
Anwar- "Hey um... you mad
Jacob Anwar flinches
JLA- "Am I mad, Am I Mad...NO... I freggin ANGRY.
JLA chucks a chair at the wall.
JLA- "Your late for training. I started an hour ago. Come on, We have a rematch tonight and your out at Macca's or McDonalds or whatever they call it in America. Levi and Lachy are going to pass us as a better tag team. But thats not going to happen."
JLA turns to the Camera
JLA- "Levi Roman. I may have been stopped before I attacked you and your brother, but nobody will stop me tonight."
Jacob Anwar takes the mic
Anwar- "Levi and Lachy remember we are still the Australian-American Tag Team Champions"
JLA and Anwar hold up their titles and walk out of their locker room.

Andy Montoya is seen walking down the hall. Suddenly Lucas Wright's voice is heard.
"Oh, Andy! Nice to see you. You haven't been around much lately."
"Ey, Luke! No I have not. But today, I get to kick Jericho in the face again. You just can't get enough of that, man."
"So got any plans for the future?"
"Ey, man. I live in the present. Let's see where it takes me."
"Thank you for that Andy!"
"Ey, no problem!"

Lucas Wright is patrolling the hallways with his cameraman at his side, when he is grabbed on the collar by none other than Ryan Bowdridge.
"You, me, interview, now."
Razzled, Lucas adjusts his collar and puts on a fake smile.
"Here we are with the new VCW Heavyweight Champion and still-reigning Hardcore Champion, Ryan Bowdridge, contending against Jack Francis in a Las Vegas Cup Qualifying Match! Ryan, how do you feel going into this?"
"Confident. I mean, I beat Seamus Anderson, a veteran, like myself, in a 15 Minute Iron Man Match. I think a few minutes with a Juniorweight like Francis will be a cakewalk, even if he is the Juniorweight Champion. I won the first Las Vegas Cup for the good ol' USA, why not do it again?"
Ryan[/b] [/color]shoves Lucas away and continues down the hallway.

The camera fades back to the arena. There, we see Lucas Wright standing in the ring for a special interview, his trusty microphone in his right hand. He stands there for a couple of seconds before he moves the microphone to his mouth and starts to speak like the professional that he is:
"Ladies and Gentlemen, it's my honor to announce another man who made his return at the Wheel of Fate. Please welcome, 'The German Wonder' Kurt Engelhorn."
Right on cue, "Links 234" by Rammstein hits the speakers to a very mixed reaction of the crowd. The reaction went even louder when Kurt appeared on the ramp, wearing the same street clothes he wore at the PPV when he attacked Efrem Ethel after his match with EFF Dash when Efrem wouldn't stop beating down Dash. Kurt walks past the crowd, a big smile on his face as he soaks up the reaction of the crowd, be it either boos or cheers. "The German Wonder" enters the ring and taunts one last before he positions himself right next to Lucas Wright, who is wasting no time to go ahead with his questions.
"Kurt, first of all, welcome back to VCW. After your official leave from VCW, your return at the Wheel of Fate PPV came as quite the shocker. So, would you please tell us what you did in the time you were gone?"
"With pleasure Lucas. You all know that at last nights PPV, a patient of the good doctor Dash made his return in the ring, a man you all know as Vertigo. But the thing is, he wasn't the only patient Dash had. I was one of his patients too, even way before Vertigo came along. I was a bitter man, and some might say that I was a 'little' crazy."
He looks around the crowd, and gets another smile on his face.
"Okay, I admit it. I had more screws loose then a 1 dollar watch. But Dash helped me with my problems, and for that, I'm really grateful. I feel like a changed man. Hell, I even began speaking with my wife and kid again!"
"That are great news Kurt! There's another question that's on everyone's mind at the moment. Why did you attack Efrem Ethel?"
And there, Kurt's smile disappears.
"That was nothing personal against Ethel, but he did a really big mistake at the PPV. He attacked the man who really helped me out. And that's something I can't let happen."
"Alright, one last question. What are your plans for the future?"
Once again, Kurt has a smile on his face. He was hoping for that question, a question he had thought about long and hard.
"Well, the Las Vegas Cup is right around the corner, right? And if I remember correctly, this is a tournament for the best wrestlers of all countries to fight against each other. So, I just say this: Germany wants some piece of the action, too."
The crowd roars in approval. They finally seem to get behind Kurt after all. But suddenly, another music hits the speakers. "Stronger" by Kanye West, the theme song of Efrem Ethel, who appears on the ramp with a Mic in his hand. And damn is he pissed...

Efrem Ethel quickly calls to cut the music as he raises his mic.
"Wait just a moment, Kurt! We're not done. No, far from it. I was doing VCW, no Las Vegas even, a favor getting rid of Dash and you spoil it?!"
"What happened to the 'German Wonder'? I'll tell you. It was EFF Dash. He seemingly put those cuddly feel-good feelings in you. That ain't you! Kurt Engelhorn is a man who punches people in the face for saying hi! Not this 'Oh I have to save my friend' guy!"
"The Wrestling business is a hard one. You got to be hard to survive. You got to be a little crazy. If you're not, then you'll fall!"
Efrem then turns around and heads backstage. Kurt Engelhorn has had enough.
"I'll show you hard! Hey, come back! I will kick your ass!"
