The scene begins in the backstage area of the Hammerstein Ballroom where Livewire is being hosted for the evening. The arena was still buzzing as the New York faithful had just seen a night of entertaining action including:
- A strong performance from the GZWA World Heavyweight Champion Carnage against Ryan Kendrick as well as Sting who made his presence felt following the main event
- The GZWA World Tag Team Champions winning an exciting Hardcore Tag Team match against the Straight-Edge Saviors
- A distracting brawl between Raven and Alicia Fox that ended up leading to a Nikki Bella win
- A hard fought victory from Maryse over Ashley Wonder
- And of course the match between Daniel Widdel and The Great Zabimaru being cut short by “The Statement” Victor Phillips which led to some choice words from both men being sent in Mr. Phillip’s direction.
We see a replay of what the audience watched throughout the night as both of these men called Victor out but it turns out the fans tuning in weren’t the only ones watching….
The camera pulls back to show "The Statement" Victor Phillips has been watching replays of both The Great Zabimaru's and Daniel Widdel's reaction to his attack tonight. When he see's the camera he turns and smiles as he knows that the world is waiting to hear his response to both men
|-Victor Phillips-|
I guess I've got everyone's attention now, huh?
Victor Phillips glances back at the monitor where he was watching the replay of what had transpired and we see Zabimaru challenging Victor to a cage match on the next Livewire. Victor looks back towards the camera and just chuckles.
|-Victor Phillips-|
Looks like Zabimaru missed the memo that went around a while back. It went something like "If you call out The Statement, you're going to get you're going to regret it".
He raises his fist in front of his face as if to say "this is what's in your future" in regards to Zabimaru's challenge.
|-Victor Phillips-|
As for the cage match stipulation? I'll just say this, I made my name in this thing called the Deathmatch division that I'm pretty sure a few will remember so if you think there's a stipulation you can throw out there that's going to make me back down then you are mistaken.
Victor looks at his arm as you can still see some faded scars of year's gone by.
|-Victor Phillips-|
Make no mistake about it Zabimaru, you and everyone else may think that me being a part of The Machine means I'm hiding behind the group but like I told Mr. Widdel, and I'll get to you in a second kiddo, I'm not trying to avoid any confrontation, I'm not looking to skip past anyone in the line, I'm pushing through any and everyone that tries to get in front of me. So if you want to be the next one to step up because you got caught being in the wrong place at the wrong time, I'm fine introducing you up close and personal to The Statement.
Victor Phillips pauses for a moment as he prepares to change gears.
|-Victor Phillips-|
Now the next Livewire isn't for a while and I've got someone else that is calling for my attention now it seems. So Widdel I just have to ask you, did you really think I wasn't going to show up tonight?
Victor Phillips laughs at the thought of his actions against Widdel tonight coming as a surprise.
|-Victor Phillips-|
Did you really think that you'd have a match in my backyard, in New York City, and I wouldn't show up to show you once again that I want the Television Championship?
He just shakes his head at what he perceives to be Widdel's naivety
|-Victor Phillips-|
I mean, I only ask because I saw your message to me and I have to be honest man, you seemed kind of flustered about what I did.
Victor Phillips arrogantly smirks into the camera as continues
|-Victor Phillips-|
You know, I found it funny when you said that I had your attention now. I told you a while back that when I talk, I mean what I say so it's not like I didn't give you a head's up kid. But better late than never I always say.
Victor taps the face of his watch
|-Victor Phillips-|
So now we're both on the same page, you want to get revenge for what I did tonight and everything that I did leading to this point. I want to fight you, not because of a problem we have or anything you've done to me. No, I want to fight you because I need something you have, I need the GZWA Television Championship so that I can take that title and elevate it to where it should be. So while you fight for revenge, I think deep down we both know who the right man for the job is when it comes to the Television Championship...

Now we have a match on Primetime, and while it may not be for the title it's the next step in me getting the title shot that I'm after. If I want my title shot then I know how this has to go, so when you are laying on the mat and looking up at me on Primetime I just want you to remember one thing Danny, it's nothing personal.
Victor Phillips flashes one last smirk at the camera before heading down the hall away from the camera as the scene ends.
