The scene opens up in a gym, far underground, inhabited but a sole man at the moment.As He stands in front of a large mirror, putting on his shoes as he prepares for another day of relentless training, "High Voltage" by Linkin Park thumps through the speakers. He's wearing a pair of mesh shorts, and a Minnesota Timberwolves jersey embroidered with the number 21. As he prepares, he speaks aloud to the camera, turning to reveal himself as none other then Ryan Kendrick.
"Stefan, it's almost time for us to meet up for yet another match. The last to times we've locked horns, you've come out the victor. I'll tell you this time however, the result's not going to be the same. And I'm not just talking out my ass. I'm the kinda person who learns from his experiences. These last two matches have opened my eyes to a lot of yours flaws Stefan. And I'll tell you the number one biggest thing I've noticed about you, Iceman. For somebody who's supposed to be the "Iceinator", you are far to damn nice for your own good. And Stefan, that's why you're going to lose at Riot Control."
Ryan pauses for a moment at he springs to his feet, a look of determination on his face as he bounces around for a few seconds, loosening up his joints for his coming workout, before heading to the punching bag.
"And I don't mean this disrespectfully. I appreciate all the things you've said about me. And we're very similar you and me. We both love this sport. We're both A+ talents, and we both give our all. We both respect each other. But there's one thing that is very different between us. I'm willing to do whatever it takes to win when I'm in that ring. You may call it cheap or unfair, but frankly, I don't really give a shit. I'm not afraid to capitalize on any chance I'm given- It's something that's been drilled into my head from my first lesson with "The Ultimate Opportunist". And this is going to be your biggest downfall Stefan. My intensity. My Aggression, is not something that can be stopped, slowed down or even frozen. And it's not only that, Iceman. My training has been far superior to yours. I trained with two Hall of Famers and in several corners of the globe to perfect my craft. "
Upon reaching the punching bag Ryan starts to throw out several stiff strikes, rocking the bag back and forth.
"And I'm still not done. My games constantly evolving, like a many-headed monster, which, each time a neck is severed, sprouts a head even fiercer and cleverer than before."
Ryan hits the bag with a particularly fierce hit, with causes the bag to swing in a large arc. On its way down, Kendrick nails it with a discus elbow, causing it to split open and the sand inside to trickle out onto the floor. Ryan sweeps his hair out of his face and faces the camera again.
"Now, I could go to some super memorable location, and Tell you how much as I respect you as a competitor and how I'm not going to look past you. But I did that last week, and the week before, and frankly I'm sick of fucking talking like I'm a nice person. Honestly, I'm not. But, ever since I've returned I've been acting like it, and that's why I couldn't capture the Tag Team titles with Enigma, and that's why I haven't been able to beat you. So when Riot Control roll's around and the bell sounds, don't expect to be in the ring with the same man you battled before. This time, I'm going to show you what I can really do in that ring. Stefan, at Riot Control, I'm going to pound your fucking face in. because that's what I do, and what I do, isn't very nice.
With that Kendrick leaves the gym, leaving the scene to fade to black.
