[The scene opens up. A mysterious coffee shop. The sign on the door reads “Welcome to the Gallery Café!” As the door is pushed open, Tyler Shane is seen sitting at a nearby table. He has a cup of Java and is reading the “News & Observer” which is the local Raleigh paper. As Tyler sits and enjoys his drink, a kid runs up to him. The child tries to see over the newspaper. Tyler notices the kid and slams the newspaper down.]Kid: Hey, Mister! Aren't you Tyler Shane?
[Tyler folds the paper up and sits up. He wipes his mouth with his sleeve and notices for the first time that the kid has a piece of paper and a pen.]
Tyler: Yeah, that's me. I'm guessing you're one of my loyal Raleigh fans, right?
[The kid smiles as Tyler messes his hair up. The child hands the pad of paper and the pen to Tyler.]
Kid: Well, we're not exactly in Raleigh. We're in the small town of Wendell, but yes! I love Supreme Wrestling! Could you, do you think...
[Tyler takes the paper from the kid and laughs.]
Tyler: Sure, I can get you an autograph!
Kid: When?
Tyler: When? When!? Now, of course!
[The kid looks around with a confused look on his face.]
Kid: Johnny Sands is here right now? WHERE?
[Tyler's smile turns to an angry scowl as the kid takes his pen and paper back from the boss. Tyler stands up and yells after the kid.]
Tyler: Johnny Sands is a punk! You don't want his autograph!
[Tyler gets angry and slams down two one-dollar bills and some change onto the table. As he walks out, the entire cafe is staring at him. Tyler gets into his Mercedes and starts it up. As the car rumbles to life, Tyler puts the car into reverse. He pulls out and begins to back up, but an old truck bumps into his trunk.]
Tyler: What the heck!? Stupid redneck!
[Tyler gets out of the silver car and walks to the back. There is a small dent in the rear bumper. An old farmer in the truck. Tyler looks up and flicks off the driver. The old man looks hurt as Tyler speeds off in his Mercedes.]
Tyler: I absolutely hate this town. This town, and Raleigh! Why'd I ever choose this place for the first Pay-Per-View? It's like financial suicide!
[Tyler pulls up to a small place entitled 'Sunset Bed & Breakfast'. The old man that owns the place walks out and helps Tyler with his stuff. Tyler walks inside and crashes in his room. The old man drops Tyler's bags off and shuts his door. The boss sets up a video camera and turns it on, then positions it on him.]
Tyler: Ah... Johnny! It's so unfortunate that you've returned so soon. Shouldn't you be out there doing something like signing autographs or something?
[Tyler rolls his eyes at his own inside joke.]
Tyler: Sands, believe it or not, I used to think you had a pretty good head on your shoulders. But then, you went off and made this absolutely nutso match!
[Tyler begins to chuckle, but immediately catches himself.]
Tyler: Johnny! You chose the losing side, I'm afraid! I've got the big, massive Annihilator in my corner and you've got the helpless and defenseless Heather DiRocco! Is there really any comparison?
[Tyler laughs at the thought of comparing Annihilator to Heather DiRocco.]
Tyler: I heard you earlier when you said something about Annihilator not harming a girl. Let this be known... Annihilator is a beast. An animal. He will stop at nothing to defeat whoever stands in his way.
[Tyler suddenly gets very serious as he stares into the camera.]
Tyler: It's been too long since I've gotten my hands on you in a match, Sands. The last time was so long ago when I screwed you out of that World Heavyweight Championship back in the AWA! Boy, that was a classic! And by the way the match is sizing up right now, it looks like this one just might become a classic as well!
[Tyler smiles and lifts a remote to the camera. As his thumb comes down, the camera goes to black.]
It's Time For A Brawl
