We fade in from black to a dark scene. We can barely make out what’s around us, except a thin layer of gray fog. Suddenly, blinding white lights shine down, bathing us in light. Time passes until we are adjusted to the light and we see 100 yards of Astroturf. Two yellow field goals stand on each side. In the center, a giant wolf is chalked on the turf, underneath it in green and gold letters are “SRV” and underneath that “Wolves”. The dark sky lies above our heads, lit by the crescent moon and thousands of twinkling stars. The area is vacant, not a sound is heard except the slight crunching of leaves coming from underneath and around us. We hear the slight tapping of shoes hitting the ground. They grow louder and louder and soon are heard on the metal bleachers which the tripod to the camera stands on. A fit male makes his way up the bleachers to where the camera is set up. As each moment passes, his footsteps and breaths getting louder and his appearance getting clearer. He wears a hood as light rain fall falls on him. His jeans are torn about and his dark shoes are thrashed. He sits down next to the camera and turns his head away from it. He inhales and exhales deeply, occasionally interrupted by the sniff of his nose. He turns and faces the field. He pulls his hands up and covers his mouth with them. He blows into them and rubs them together for warmth.
The man removes his hood. We see medium length brown hair, barely reaching down to the tips of his ears. His hazel eyes glisten from the light of the moon and lights. His face is somewhat sad, but he has a look of determination in them. A look of sureness and passion, which we don’t see from just anyone. Through his expression we are able to identify this man as Johnny Magnum. He turns his head and faces the camera and releases a sigh. Smoke comes from his mouth due to the coldness of the atmosphere. Johnny turns his head away once more and begins to speak.
Magnum:
“I wish I could start this promo by saying, last week I did exactly what I was going to do, didn’t I? But I can’t. I can’t because of one man, and that man is the man who I thought was my best friend. That man is The Roy. See, last week I told myself that I was going to beat the Raven. I told the world, I was going to pin Raven 1…2…3… I know, I did pin him, 1…2…3, but the victory…. It didn’t mean a damn thing. And why? Because of that jealous and arrogant slime, A Roy. All week they’ve asked me…. Why Johnny? Why? Why’d you do it? Why’d you Gun Shot Roy? Ladies and gentlemen I didn’t turn on Roy Rowe, Roy Rowe turned on me. He stuck his nose where it didn’t belong. You see, he saw in the back… he watched my match with Raven. Studying for his match against him in the future and he knew… I was going to do what he will never do. I was going to take Raven out and hold him down for the 3 count. Roy, you couldn’t handle that… could you? I mean, that ‘little twerp’ Johnny Magnum did it! And you can’t! You got worried. What would they think of you then? What would you do? Where could you go to hide out until they forgot? So, you had an idea. Maybe, just maybe, if I assist him in his victory, people would think better of me. Am I close Roy? But you know… I was smarter than that. I saw through your plan and I started planning. So I came down after your match… and I hit the Gun Shot on you. Because I knew after I did that, there was no going back. You would want a match, Dreamer would book the match, and I could prove that I am better than you Roy Rowe….”
Magnum looks out on the field…. He laughs to himself and faces the camera.
Magnum:
“Roy, you say you know just who I am… well… that was the old me. I have evolved into a new stage. I am a different man that I was 2 weeks ago…. I am more powerful. More focused… and more determined. Roy….err… to put it simply…. Last week… won’t be the only time… you get dropped with the TGS. Because this Friday… I will beat you…. I guarantee it.”
Magnum gets up and sprints down the bleachers and begins running around the track as the scene fades to black.
You say you know just who I am
But you can't imagine
What waits for you across the line
You thought you had me
But I'm still here standing
And I'm tired of backing down
