::We close in alongside Michael Morrison backstage in the hallways of the arena for IIW Combat Show - he approaches VIP Eddie Zam who has just exited the office of the owner Osh Vaughn; Eddie carries an inch thick metallic clipboard with a stack of A4 papers clipped on. He wears - a Black blazer matched with black pants, shoes and an open collared mustard shirt.::
Michael Morrison: V- I - P Eddie Zam! It's my pleasure meeting you, names Michael.
Zam: Buenas Noches Miguelito!! It's an honor finally meeting you. I presume you wanna know about Monday, you wanna know about Savage Grace, you wanna know about Jason Hunter, you wanna know why I spat on Blake's face, you wanna talk I-I-W International Championship tournament- first things first - come with me.
::Eddie Zam smirks at the camera and points everyone to follow him as he begins to walk the hallways in search of the lockerooms. He plans to prepare for IIW Combat action::
Zam: I'm here again tonight at IIW Combat, and I shall be here week in week out- because when I signed up with Intense International Wrestling it was for two things- to nurture the next generation of superstar- at all cost, and to make sure THEY win- to make sure they become their TRUE self and - in turn I WIN - it really is that simple.
And here at Combat I see the next superstars, right here, i see alot of names which interest me, names with potential.
::VIP presents his shiny new 1 inch thick metallic clipboard to the screen; attached with a nice stack of A4 paper - that is where he writes his names and scouting reports. They continue walking evading some of the Combat Jobbers in the process::
Morrison: Like Savage Grace?
Zam: Exacto- Some of the viewers probably saw what occurred the other night when I unveiled the very first name -the name of that man I unveiled was worthy of: Looking, Listening and Learning from ME, he was the first man that stood out to me when I took a look at the roster that Osh Vaughan has assembled here at Intense International Wrestling. That man was none other than Savage Grace! Exacto Miguelito Exacto.
Morrison: So after the beating you dealt to him at the previous Combat show, I can only imagine he forgave you?
Zam: I forgave HIM, and I arrived at Monday Night Mayhem with a mission , to find Grace and get an answer from him. As it turns out I found Savage Grace, sweeping the rubbish in the locker rooms trying to catch a break and make it in this ruthless industry. So as fate would have it, he will never sweep again, not on my watch- the wheel of fortune has smiled upon him. I forgave him, we met cara a cara, face to face , and he agreed to Fail, Forward , FAST .. extremely humble that I wrote his name first in my Clipboard. He told me that in order to succeed in life in order to further his wrestling career, my assistance was necessary.
I said to him, what are the three rules of success, and he knew them, he knew the rules - like eventually everyone in the roster will - And so what does a good Christian like me do? He lends a hand.
Morrison: Like you did for Jason Hunter?
Zam: Forget that clown! He will thank me in due time. This is about Savage Grace, he won for the first time in his illustrious career , one, two, three, thanks to me and onto the next round of the International Championship tournament, thanks to ME - You see, when I promised him I'd show him how to become his true SELF , how to be more like me, a winner, a champion, a fable - I meant it. I was born in nineteen seventy seven, the year of the snake
::Zam arrives at a lockeroom entrance and before entering, turns becoming noticeably irritable and continues::
So this April, - wise and poisonous, slippery and sneaky. - as I take notes and inscribe the next lucky names on these pages, youse all better wisen up, the whole roster best listen and start paying attention, because I was born with a microphone in one hand and pen on the other- take notes and inscribe the following in your minds- Ohh Mamacita It's Good to be ME!!
I and anyone I choose, will be the future of I-I-W and everyone here tonight or back home watching on Netflix, in Canada, India or some slum city like London, it doesn't matter where you are- YOU should highlight the following... Evasion, Escalation, Eradication - 1 9 7 7 .
::The Lockeroom is relatively empty, The Manc Mauler is seen in the background adjusting his boots, VIP Eddie Zam, grabs his bag, opens it... brings out his wrestling gear and Phone, He makes a call::
Eddie Zam: SAVAGE GRACE!! You fat pig!! Where you at!!? I see the Manc Mauler here and you aint here ....... Did i pick the right guy??
:::Eddie Zam hangs up the phone, and throws it on his bag:::
Morrison: About Savage Grace and the next round of the tournament, Travis Blake completely toyed with Savage Grace, until well- you helped me him out. So how will he cope with a second generational talent like Mark Alessio?
Zam: O Please Miguelito, I will tell you how I will cope : (Imitating Alessio) Me llamo Marko Allessio! My favourite colour is red and I eat spaghetti with a spoon. mmmm I like to rub Giovanni's back in ritzy hotel lobbies, My favourite number is One , because I'm twenty ONE ... capiche? My Dad loves wrestling I love wrestling , I'm six foot six and Im such a big GOOF!!!! MUUHAHAHAHAHA
Thats what you are Markito , twenty one, young, dumb and numb!
You see Michael Morrison, thats how I will cope- I'ma tell this little boy the truth, all about the bitter truth- I'm sure Papa Dante is a hard working old school Italian man with a proper work ethic - so im one hundred percent sure he will appreciate what I'm about to say to that lazy Pinocchio wannabe - grab a chair, grab paper and pen- Look, Listen and LEARN- you're slacking off- and papa Dante should slap you silly.
Look here Michael, deep down I like the kid, he seems to have what it takes to fail, forward, fast - He seems like a future work in progress, and thats exactly what that little boy is, a work in progress! So, let me be kind and I'll share with you- Michael- and I'll share with Markito Alessio the next step in his wrestling career. Don't show up.. Stay home, ring Papa Dante, rub Gianni's back, do whatever the hell you think is smart and cool... just stay away. I will not warn you again little boy!
Morrison: Savage Grace is a one dimensional brawler, with your somewhat technical background - what if anything have you taught him?
Zam: I'm not here to teach him how to wrestle, He has to Look, Listen and Learn- I'm here to bring out his true SELF. Im not here to babysit anybody, im not here to teach any one how conduct themselves on the microphone. Im not here to teach them how to put a man to sleep with their bare hands, I'm not here to teach some bum how to cut the line at the cafeteria or beat the living day lights outta of their opponent. NO...
Winning.... Thats what Im here for. To win at life. So Marko Alessio better come to grips with life fast, because I've waited for twenty years to get my hands on someone and re arrange their face. I've waited for twenty years to put another belt around my waist.
Morrison: Yet, you are not in the tournament , It's Savage Grace.
:::Eddie Zam sadden and frustrated at the fact Michael is right and he isn't in the International Championship tournament, he makes the sign of the cross and continues::
Zam: I know brainiac, I know... I've waited twenty years to pass my knowledge onto a worthy recipient and watch them be crowned with a title. So yes, It is Savage Grace , and yes Mark Alessio - Savage Grace might know one or two holds at maximum- but he can punch like a donkey and he will punch you to next month, and when it's all said and done , you Italian PIG! .... Savage Garden or Grace or whatever the hell his name is will beat you, I'll be ringside to make sure he beats you for the one two three and there is nothing you, Gianni, Giovanni, Papa Dante, Jason Hunter, Travis Blake or any other pretender can do about it.... Nothing.
Let that simmer in that weak heart of yours Markito, let it simmer little boy, you're a work in progress......let it sting let it bite that weak spirit, and while its simmering- grab yourself a VIP ticket, get in line and wait your TURN!!!
Because this turn IS MINE!! ....
Now if you would excuse me Michael, I 'm gonna get into my leotards , I'm gonna go out there in front of the Combat faithful, Im gonna stand in that ring and enlightened them on matters around here at IIW... all in a days work for me, Michael, back to back interviews, promos... shoots, you name it , You want it... you call ...I talk, you listen... like taking candy from a baby ... easy as one, two, three.....
MUUUHAHAHAHA

(Eddie Zam is sitting in his office at The Big Western, Moss Side. He looks pleased with himself as his new investment- whatever he has put into the establishment was all he had, and it better work. He is using a calculator and writing some notes on some papers. In comes barging Wang and Sandeep , both seem in urgency, and they interrupt each other as they speak)
Sandeep & Wang : Mister Zam!! Mister....
Zam: Por dios!! My god , how many times do I have to tell you guys , if your name aint Amelia Granger or a female I invited here personally ... YOU KNOCK!! No questions asked.. you knock!!
Sandeep: Beri sori boss. Look look!
(Outside Eddie Zam's office is some IIW cameras setting up... ....for a promo. Eddie Zam gets up from his office and confronts the camera men)
Zam: NOO !! Not now.. Im busy here, come back at 4 pm. And Savage Grace will be here , he will be here too learn from me, too prepare , too train, too dream... I shall give you guys VIP footage of our training session. Step by step, No ring necessary, we go out back here... this place is large enough ..and I show you guys how I help Savage Grace become his TRUE SELF!!
===========
(We rejoin in the 'backyard' of The Big Western... a messy looking patch of concrete and some grass and weed over growing. Eddie Zam is dress in his single strao black leoptards, black boots with EZ in gold.. gold knees pads and a one right elbow sleeve, gold in colour. Savage Grace stands before him... oiled up and ready to go.... Zam throws hi white towel at)
Zam: VAMOS!! Take that .,.. and that... This is for you Papa Dante!!! Smack BANG!!!
(Zam chops and headbutts Savage Grace and knees him in the groin and faces the camera while Savage Grace regains his composure)
You see Marko Alessio , thats what would happen to you IF i was to be your opponent, I know you are somewhere slacking off and crossing your fingers and wishing upon a star that Mayhem doesnt come around , but its coming- whether you realize that or not- Savage Grace is gonna be ready.. he aint slacking like you.
I know your a next generational star, i see things in you I very much like, yet you are not first in my list of names, you dont know the 3 rules of success like Savage Grace does.... he knows them by heart... engraved in his mentality.
(Zam double axe handles Savage Grace twice in the back and gives him a soccer kick to the jaw.. and continues)
MUUHAHAHA It's not your fault Markito Alessio, its not. I've only been here one month or so and its natural to not know what to expect- Iv'e yet to really get down and dirty - and you like the rest of the IIW roster perhaps underestimate my influence.. MY power, My presence, my fortune... Like the Sun ... Once i shined upon Savage Grace his career changed... I can do that for you Markito.. Im sure Papa Dante would love it.....Im sure Papa Dante the hard working man he is, my type of man- he would thank me for teaching his son about LIFE.
Question remains... will you put in the work? Will you follow the three rules of success? Will you Look, Listen and Learn?
(Zam picks up Savage Grace by the hair ... rake to the eyes... and swinging neck breaker... Savage Grace is reeling in pain... Zam gets up, runs his hands thur his hair and speaks)
You see boy, PIG, you see....If you dont follow the 3 rules of success , you can only begin to imagine what will occur to you after Mayhem...IF you show up. Im warning you bambino, do not show up.. stay home , eat pizza, eat some spaghetti with a spoon or whatever the hell you do.. just slack off another fortnight- for your own good.
Savage Grace will recover from this lesson and the next one.... he will recover before Mayhem, he will be stronger, he will be tougher and hopefully if La Virgen Maria blesses him ...he will be smarter...
(Zam does the sign of the cross)
Yet this is only beginning for Savage Grace, God willing, and by god it will occur- he shall win, move onto the next round and face perhaps not just the next IIW International Heavyweight Champion, yet odds on, down the line, the next IIW World Heavyweight Champion... you see not only the title , the gold is on the line.. its a new start, a new era, a new beginning , a new standard.... and this standard is smooth, its rough, wise and poisonous, slippery and sneaky... 1 9 7 7 .... I got all the bases covered, I have Savage Grace leading my assault .. and nothing nothing can impede my way to World's Collide . Nothing!
So lets be frank, lets be transparent- When Savage Grace wins the title, I will have accomplished the first part of my plans here at Intense International Wrestling. He will prove to all the world, to all Manchester the power of the mind... Mind over Matter, Mind over skills. I've seen too many wars, witnessed too many beatings .... I'm old enough to be all your fathers.... forty four , fit as a ever, fresh as can be... twenty years in the waiting and Savage Grace will not let me down. Amen...
(Zam lays a huge kick to the ribs of Savage Grace .. and then turns to the camera)
Tyler Debonair, Ryan Hawkins, JT Maverick... or whoever else thinks they have a chance at the International title.... Think again, think hard, think bitter, swallow the truth, get ready... This industry might be about selling tickets and putting bums on the seats, but it also about winning, it's also about reality, hard facts, bitter truths and bad memories.... SO hold on to anything you can , grab a ticket, get in line!!! Look, Listen and Learn... Theres only one way to the top and thats Fail Forward FAST and you can bet your bottom dollar ...The VIP ticket to the top has my name on it and as Mark Alessio , Tyler Debonair, Ryan Hawkins, Curtis or anyone else in the IIW Roster will learn PRONTO.......
It's Good to be ME!!!! Muahahaha
(Zam begins stomping on Savage Grace and yelliing at him as the scene fades out......)
