“I’m a little bit nervous.” As I clip the microphone onto my black tie” TJ Says
“There’s nothing to be nervous about, just think of this as a normal introduction.” The cameraman says
[My first sit down interview on the international scene. Yeah it was something to be worried about. The hot camera lights beaming down on me had me sweating uncontrollable. I try and clear my throat before as a production assistant hands me bottled water while my white shirt is damped with sweat. My hand shakes a little before I take a sip of the water.]
“TJ you’ll be fine man, just take a deep breath and relax and I’ll count down.” The cameraman says
“Hello everyone, my name is TJ Alexander, but you can all call me TJ. I’m the new chap on the block here in IIW, but I suppose you can call me the new chap on the internationally scene too. I’ve been cutting my teeth and honing my craft for the past few years now on the independent scene over across the pond in the United Kingdom. With the odd chances to appear in Japan a few times, and I’ve also been blessed to appear in Mexico, I’m what you would call an internet sensation.”
[TJ takes a deep breath]
“While I have worked hard in getting where I am in life, I’m truly blessed in being able to compete in IIW. My debut here on Monday Night Mayhem will be the biggest event of my career so far, and the biggest audience I’ll be exposed to. I know the show and the roster of the IIW locker room has some major talented names on it. I look at the card for Mayhem and the names scream out. Some long-lasting talents that have been here since day one and some are like me, new around here. But as I’ve looked over and over on the card I see that I am too compete in the International tournament round one against Mikey Kinkade.“
“I may not know everyone on the roster yet, but it feels like I do. I’ve been watching IIW on and off for years now. Almost since its inception. And I’ve seen the faces around here control the power through holding championship gold. I intend on winning a lot of gold around here but that won’t come easy. My first step is next week on Monday Night Mayhem. At the moment I only control of what I do. And I’ll tell you all a little secret right now of what TJ Alexander is going to do. I’m gonna’ use every bit of knowledge, speed and strength I have and add MY NEVER SAY DIE attitude I am going to win and not only win. But I am gonna steal the show. “
[TJ pauses]
“I’m gonna steal the show and show everyone around here in IIW that when I signed on the dotted line that I just became the gold-mine that IIW needs. That I’m the real deal and that everyone on the roster should be put on notice. Mikey Kinkade will definitely find out how good I am on Mayhem.”
[TJ takes a deep breath]
“Perhaps Mikey Kinkade will enter the ring with an ego and assume that he can beat me. In which I’ll enjoy my win even more. Maybe Mikey Kinkade will be humble and give his opponent respect. Like I’ll do. But my guess is that Mikey Kinkade will look down on me. He will think that he can just beat me with ease and that’s going to be his downfall. And when that bell rings Mikey Kinkade will find out that you should never just assume. Never have an ego. Always be humble.”
”I know I will have to earn my place here in IIW, I know that I will be looked at just another new guy around here. But I know the skies the limit for me, I know that I will soar high in the sky above the rest of the locker room and leave my mark here in IIW. I was told by my father to always leave a good first impression. And on next week at Monday Night Mayhem is the chance I need to make my first impression in IIW, and with my performance I will leave not just the fans speechless but every person in the locker room speechless too. My performance against Mikey Kinkade will leave everyone awestruck.”
“You all make sure you tune into next week on Monday Night Mayhem and I will make sure your time and attention are not wasted. I am going to let loose and put everything on the line, my body, my passion and my heart and I am going to give every last ounce I have to win this match and every match I compete in. This won’t just be my first impression in IIW and its fans. It will be an everlasting impression. You all can all recognize talent when you see it, and when you see me, you will realize my words when I said the sky’s the limit is words of truth.”
[TJ leans back as confidence echoes from him]
“I plan on going places, and I want to take you all with me along for the ride. Without the fans the whole thing comes crumbling down. So I take the time right here and right now to thank the fans, and to say that I am gonna give you the gift of excitement and give you all the performance of a lifetime.”
“I thank you all from the bottom of my heart for supporting this sport, IIW, and for supporting me. And I promise you from the bottom of my heart, you are going to get the absolute best of TJ Alexander every damn show, that goes to not only the fans but too my opponents too.”
[Scene ends]
