The camera's view changes to the back of the arena, where the stage is empty and the fans move restlessly in their seats, awaiting action...
-But before anything happens, an over-excited fan shouts out "IT'S DAZZA!" and the arena erupts in cheers as the lights turn gold and "Born To Rule" blasts clearly from the speakers. The Heavyweight Champion enters through the curtain and stands proudly with the belt around his waist and a microphone in hand. He makes his way down to the ring, as fans try desperately to touch him, but are unsuccessful.
'The King' stretches in the middle of the ring and looks around at the audience.
Did you all enjoy the Las Vegas Cup?
The fans scream wildly and Dazza shakes his head, as if almost deafened.
Defeating Chase made the whole night worthwhile -but that's not why I'm here...
He looks down at his belt and pats it fondly.
I came out here tonight to clarify a question that's been nagging at me since the end of the Las Vegas Cup tournament...
The fans start cheering for Chris Shawcross, which makes Dazza smirk.
I forgot... you're all psychic... I'm out here to get an answer from Chris, as I'd like to be fully aware if he's coming after me for my VCW Championship... So Chris, I know you're out there, give me an answer...
'The King' waits patiently, as the fans continue cheering.
{To Be Continued By Luke}
"Just Like You" by Three Days Grace hits the speakers, and those in attendance break out in cheers, as the 2008 Las Vegas Cup Winner Chris Shawcross makes his way out onto the stage with a microphone in his hand. He makes his way down to the ring, sliding in and then standing a few feet away from Dazza. Shawcross waits for his music to fade out before speaking.
"First of all, I'd like to congratulate you on beating Chase at the Cup pay-per-view... but then I'd like to ask: what the hell makes you assume I'm coming after you and the Heavyweight Title, King? Is your ego that inflated that you assume everyone wants a piece of you?"
The VCW Heavyweight Champion smirks, and nods in a sickly agreement.
"That's about right, I thought so," Shawcross replies, now pacing backwards and forwards. He then suddenly stops, and stares into the Champion's eyes.
"Dazza, I'm not obligated to face you for your Heavyweight Title... I might go after Slaughterhouse, and reclaim the Hardcore Title again. I might go after Joe Patoni, and claim the Las Vegas Championship once more. And who are you to know that I might have even dropped a few pounds in order to challenge Luke Devlin himself, and compete for the VCW Juniorweight Championship?"
Dazza meets Shawcross's stare with a stare of his own, a look of seriousness but slight bewilderment upon his face.
"The bottom line is, whatever I decide to do... whatever choice I make... I'll do it in my time... and you won't see it coming."
Shawcross gets face to face with Dazza, and the two stare each other down, before Shawcross turns and makes to exit the ring. Dazza turns around to hand his microphone back to the timekeeper, and then all of a sudden, Shawross strikes, spinning the Champion around, kicking him in the gut and butterflying his arms. Shawcross looks around quickly at those in attendance, before lifting Dazza and dropping him with the Tiger Driver.
The crowds erupt into excited cheers, as Shawcross springs back up to his feet and swipes his microphone back up from the ring canvas. He then gets down on his stomach so is within breathing distance of the Champion.
"Me, you, March 15th, Double Down... for the VCW Heavyweight Championship. See you there, King."
With that, Shawcross's music hits, and he drops the microphone and exits the ring. Shawcross backs up the ramp with a devilish smile on his face as those in attendance cheer and the scene fades out.
