“ The scene opens up to Cyrus looking out from a glass pane as he looks into the beautiful woods in Montana. As he rests one of his arms on the glass, and leans on it, he begins to speak.”
Cyrus: Two matches in, and I have yet to be beaten here on Friday Night Combat. Two matches in and I am already close to championship gold… and yet that isn’t my concern at all. You all seem to be confused by said statement; it’s true, the gold doesn’t concern me as I am not a greedy man, I am not a prideful man, and I am no sinner. This match is not for that championship you hold dear, Ironwolf. No, this match is about sending a message to any and all competitors who’s only purpose here is to pursue gold and become part of the problem this modern society has with becoming sinners because of greed itself! If someone like me, a man more concerned with saving humanity itself rather than becoming champion made it to the same spot most of you greedy bastards wish you could have; what does that say about you? What does that say about your purpose here in IIW as a whole, eh?
“ Cyrus chuckles a bit, as he continues to stare at the woods as he begins to smoke a cigarette.”
Cyrus: Now, Iron Wolf, tell me why exactly you fight? What purpose do you truly serve as champion? All I can seem to grasp about you is the fact you have an infatuation with wolves. Perhaps it’s because you see yourself as a leader in a world lost in its chaos, or perhaps because you’re a lone wolf and like to handle things on your own. Whatever reason it is, it doesn’t matter because when we both meet come Ground Zero you will learn that there’s a reason why man was able to domesticate the common wolf and turn them to genetic monstrosities unfit to survive by their own! So imagine what a savior like myself can do to you as punishment for not leading the new world into a brighter future! That’s WHY you are champion, not to have extra weight around the waist, not for the extra bit of clout, but to be a the image of WHAT one should be in order to be considered one of the best to ever do it… but clearly, that failed when you became champion.
“ Cyrus turns around as he begins to look at the camera and just smirk as he continues to speak.”
Cyrus: I’ll be the one to put things back where they should be. I will give all the people a REAL role model to look up to and follow because you, Iron Wolf, clearly failed them all! You not only failed the people that call themselves your fan, you failed the suits in IIW that saw potential in you, and worst of all… you failed YOURSELF! Maybe once I make you experience ego death, you can ponder and find what truly is your purpose on this planet! Until then, expect to see yours truly as the new champion… and changes WILL occur once I have that symbol of greed and pride in my grasps! In Cyrus we trust as we like to say around here… let that saying settle in your mind Ironwolf, maybe you’ll find your saving grace in the words of the messiah himself, Cyrus Youngblood! I will be waiting my child… sooner than later my child… sooner than later…
“ As Cyrus says this, he smirks as the screen slowly fades to black, and the Cyrus Youngblood logo bleeds in as per usual, before the screen fades to black once again.”

Iron Wolf sits on his bed at a hotel. The others are having dinner at someplace fancy, but he was feeling somewhat antisocial and decides to sit at the hotel and have some beers. He cracks one open and drinks almost half of it and sighs in relief.
Iron Wolf: You don’t know much about me, Cyrus? Am I infatuated with wolves? Gosh, I named myself Iron Wolf…I must be obsessed with wolves. That’s the stupidest thing that I have heard in quite a while. Are you thinking that maybe you need your hand sewn to your chest so you don’t hurt yourself?
Iron Wolf finishes the beer and tosses it into the waste bin that sits by the bed. He sets another one on the bedside table and shakes his head.
Iron Wolf: I’m sorry. That was a mean thing to say. I mean it’s not for me to say that your mother dropped you on your head when you were a baby. I am Iron Wolf because I am a beast! I get into the ring and fight with my everything. I do not give up. I do not surrender. I go into battle food myself and for my fans. I don’t want to let them down when I hit the ring.
Iron Wolf reaches into a shirt chest pocket and pulls out a pack of cigarettes and a lighter. Yeah, he’s in a non-smoking room, but celebs are expected to trash hotel rooms. Yes? He lights a cigarette and takes a drag from it, blowing smoke into the air.
Iron Wolf: I go on record to say that with a heavy heart, I must announce that the Uprising championship will be vacant after Ground Zero. I have to take my leave from Intense International Wrestling. It’s not that there’s a problem with the company or the fans. Both have been great, but I had an offer that I couldn’t refuse. So, to better represent my fans, I will have to go.
Iron Wolf flicks ashes into an empty beer can on the bedside table.
Iron Wolf: This doesn’t mean that I’m going to drop the title to you, Cyrus. Quite the opposite. I’m going to give this my everything in order to go out on top. To go out as champion. After I defeat you, Cyrus, I will surrender the championship belt to management and take my leave of the company with my head held high. Of course, there is that chance that you might defeat me in the ring for this title and that is fine. If you come out the better man, you come out the better man. Just know that I am going to fight with everything I have. My teammates and my fans deserve no less than my best.
Iron Wolf finishes the cigarette and drops the butt into the empty beer can.
Iron Wolf: So, come at me, Cyrus. Come at me with all that you have in order to try to take this title from me on my last defense ever. You won’t win, but it’s good that you try. I see that you are undefeated since coming here and I have to ask why. How is it that a second-rate wrestler like you becomes undefeated? It really boggles the mind that you would get by anyone, much less earn a title shot. Your opponents must have really not been in the game in order for you to take a victory.
He laughs at his own joke and pops open another beer, taking a gulp from it before setting it to the side.
Iron Wolf: I look forward to seeing you in the ring, Cyrus. My last IIW match should be spectacular, but I got you. I guess I’ll just have to make due…

“ A camera turns on as Cyrus is seen death staring the screen as he slowly steps back sporting an all black suit. Cyrus begins to cackle as he calms down and begins to speak up. ”
Cyrus: You find yourself to be a comedian huh? Mocking my genuine criticism of your character and playing me off as some kind of idiot? It’s funny, the fools try to cope when confronted with facts by turning to comedy and slandering the opposing side. Ironwolf, YOU are not the type of champion WE NEED IN IIW! You are not a beast, you’re a simpleton who is as allowed to have an ego left unchecked for TOO damn long! Insult my intellect, that’s fine… but don’t pretend to be something you aren’t; a role model. You don’t care for the fans, you’re out in a motel by yourself drinking yourself to death! You are smoking yourself into a world filled with your delusions. I AM HERE TO SAVE YOU FROM YOURSELF! I AM HERE TO SAVE ALL OF IIW FROM HUMAN GARBAGE LIKE YOU, IRONWOLF!
“ Cyrus slams his fist on his hand as his demeanor becomes angrier than before. “
Cyrus: You want to drop the weight of the world that comes when one becomes champ because it all goes back to my point; you can’t keep being something that you truly aren’t. You are no hero, you are not an upstanding competitor; you’re just like the rest, SCUM! A better offer is why you’re leaving? So IIW just isn’t good enough huh? That’s that greed and pride talking mate, because a guy like me has all the skill set to be hired anywhere else… and yet I stay because I WANT TO HELP! I WANT TO SAVE THESE PEOPLE! I AM NOT THE BAD GUY, THAT IS YOU, IRONWOLF!
“ Cyrus starts to walk around as he is viciously gritting his teeth in anger before stopping for a bit and running up to the camera to speak into it. “
Cyrus: You don’t have to choose to drop that title to me my boy… because I will force it out of the grasps of your hands! You won’t be using the reputations you built here by using these naive fans to boost your career until you end up running your career to the ground! You speak of there being a “chance” at me beating you, no, no, no… it’s an absolute fact that coke Ground Zero, IIW will have a new champion, and that will be The Messiah himself, Cyrus Youngblood! You can try to fight with everything you’ve got lad, but what’s a king to a God right? You just aren’t on my level, and that’s been proven by ME still being undefeated especially against me facing a monster like The Silence! You can complain about me all ya’ want but when your last match in IIW is written with the record that ya’ lost to the one and only, Cyrus Youngblood… I hope the new business opportunity doesn’t give ya a hard time for not being good enough to beat a person you call a second-rate wrestler. See ya Friday ya fuckin’ mutt!
“ Cyrus tosses the camera down to the floor as the screen cracks and the screen fades to black with the Cyrus Youngblood logo bleeds in before the screen fades to black again. “
