Scene opens with H20 carrying his gym bag out towards the garage of The Garden. He's clearly starting to unravel about the capture of his parents. He's been trying to call home all night but to no avail.
H2O: C’mon. Someone pick up the gotdamn phone!
The number you have dialed has a voice mailbox that has not been set…(hangs up)
A car is heard screeching into the parking garage. An all black Range Rover Sport with tints is speeding up towards him. The SUV stops in front of him and rolls the window down.
Heather: I just saw your match via stream vs Rev Inc’s Gentleman Jack. You had that match won. I thought you said you were focused?
H2O: I a-
Heather: Am not clearly. Get in! I'm taking you home. We're going to settle this matter head on once and for all. No way you're winning a title with your mind at this state.
H2O: (sigh) You're right. We have to head to Denver and check to see if they're OK.
Heather: Who said anything about Denver? We're heading back to Queens to your.. the loft. I have something special there for you.
H2O: (smiles) Entiendo, no.
Heather: (giggles) Nice try. But I see you're really trying to speak the language. I'll work with you on your Spanish..later. But as of tonight I'm going to teach you some moves.
Heather Angelo rolls up her window and speeds off out of the garage. Scene fades.
The camera pans to the announce team.

Odd turn of events! |

Indeed! |
The Camera Pans To The Ramp!
Our 'humble' Hero, The greatest underdog in the history of professional wrestling, The dual Champion known as the Black King circled the ring, tossing the mic back and forth.
His titles were on display, held up by a pedestal as they should be, being the two most important titles in present day OCW.
Dennis: I just wanted to say, Happy Dennis Black History Month, Ladies and Gentleman! Learning about the first incarnation of Revolution Inc., and why this Faction is now in the Hall of Fame did a lot for me.
Dennis:It has been an honor to represent those that started this group and the current members each and every time I step in this ring.
Dennis: Coupled with witnessing one of...if not the greatest Super Bowl in history helped me realize how fortunate I am to be a part of such a successful lineage of Champions in OCW’s history.
Dennis: I could make comparisons between the Super Bowl Champions and Revolution Inc. until i'm blue in the face, but I'm out here to get something else off of my chest.
There was a mixed reaction from the audience because New Yorkers don't know any better. Dennis briefly points to the curtain.
Dennis: I feel I've set myself apart from my rookie class, and the current class for a few reasons. Being known as decent, is just another way for Veterans to say you could be better.
Dennis: I find that unacceptable in my preparation before coming out here. I work too hard to accept being 'decent'.
Dennis: Being known as someone who stays in their lane, is just another way of being noted as a wrestler who isn't willing to take a chance on themselves or fail in pivotal moments.
Dennis: You're just happy to be here, and will gladly elevate when someone above you gets bored or retired. I find that unacceptable in my preparation before coming out here.
Dennis: I work too hard to accept staying in a designated lane. I carve my own path, and I walk it proudly.
Dennis: Being known as humble is a nice way of saying you're a rookie that knows how to keep his mouth shut and accept the scraps that are given to him.
Dennis: I find that unacceptable in my preparation before coming here. Besides, we have enough humble guys in both locker rooms.
Dennis: I know there is a perception that people have of me. But I know the facts. Accepting being known as decent, humble, or staying in your lane as a first year guy does not get you to the finals of the S-Cup, King of OCW tournament, or the main event of Summercide as a rookie.
Dennis: I can think of two more reasons why I'm right.
Dennis twirls the mic while pacing around the ring. The camera zooms in on the OCW Television Title and the Turmoil Heavyweight Championship.
Dennis: I never want to be known as someone who is simply hungry or thirsty to succeed, I will always be ravenous to point where you can most certainly claim I am insatiable.
A picture of Madison and Dennis appears on the X-Tron, causing most to jeer one of OCW's most polarizing duos in recent memory.
Per the norm, Madison had both championships raised above her head while Dennis was recovering from a match. He looks to the Tron and points.
Dennis: Regardless of anyone’s personal feelings about this woman, deep down I know that most in OCW would consider it a blessing to have her in their corner.
Dennis: She's wise to this sport beyond her years, and keeps me focused. Because even as a 'new guy', I'm thinking about the end due to her foresight.
Dennis points to his own chest as the image on the X-Tron fades to black.
Dennis: I'm not going to make it to a decade by taking it easy in this ring day in and day out. I'm never going to be the guy that phones it in during the fall and Summer, only to then try his hardest around April or May.
Dennis: I won't be the guy that's overstays his welcome, and compete at a lesser level while constantly reminding all of you about my past accomplishments from before Rush TV was in high definition. God...are those guys a snooze fest.
Dennis: When I'm done, I'm done. I won't come back and take the spot of a younger guy trying to pave a way for himself.
Dennis: I'm a lot of things, but a hypocrite is not of them. Last year's Wrestlution and this season's Devil’s Night have had me feeling a certain kind of way.
Dennis: Madison and I are always thinking about the end. I have to because of the style and pace that I keep in this ring.
Dennis: A style that kept audiences entertained for years because of men like Sean Strider and Ed Reed...
There were large pockets of the audience that cheered loudly.
Dennis: A style that often led to some of the funniest blooper reels because of men like Jookie Marley and Ryu Matsumoto.
Dennis: A style that made us cringe because of the intensity of men like Majin and Hazard. The list goes on and on with guys that helped set a standard. Men like Vega, CJ Hoppus, The Air, and...someone I know very well, Malu.
The audience shows their disapproval for the Samoan brute. Dennis then focuses his attention on the camera lens in front of him.
Dennis: A style that you innovated and took to the next level. The very same style that I have....perfected.
Dennis: Comparisons get made in passing, but the only thing we actually in common is the doubt we instill in the hearts of men standing across from us.
Dennis: I came to Riot for you, specifically for the Ex. I was born and bred to compete in and represent the Ex. I got here too late, and now...we have a Light Heavyweight Division.
Dennis: A locker room I'm not even allowed to compete against because it would be compared to a shark swimming in goldfish infested waters.
Dennis: A division comprised of a guy that calls himself the head rookie, having not an impactful win to his name. A division where half of the men tremble at the thought of climbing a turnbuckle.
Dennis: A Division with a guy that calls himself the Prince of Wrestling when our Lady Queen is pure of body and heart. We don't have children.
Dennis takes a moment to take in the laughter over his comments about Madison.
Dennis: I always think about the end of the road, because I wonder how I'll be compared to most of a golden age that has died out or has lost a step.
Dennis: Where will my place in history be, compared to these pioneers if the OCW universe never gets to see those matches?
Dennis: I don't want to be ‘you’. You will always be the best example of this style of wrestling, but only for your era.
Dennis: For the next two to five years, it will be the same story for me. I'm the example. The standard For this era. With that said...what now?
Dennis: Where do I go? Do I just continue to fight against guys that are twice my size, while having to fend off their...
Dennis gags.
Dennis: Limited repertoire in my sleep? Plenty of guys are here simply because they were good at lifting weights, not because they have any skill.
Dennis: That sounds awfully boring! I want to feel excitement again. I haven't been excited since Riot 450.
Dennis: These are the thoughts that keep me up at night. The end. Not just mine, but yours. Ten years, fifteen years from now, I don't want to hear about Stacy Clark’s replacement doing documentaries on ‘what if?’
Dennis: I don't want to be you. Because when I think about you, I think back to the disappointment you must have felt after finally getting that match at Wrestlution Ten, against the man you wanted…who turned out to be a shell of his former self.
Dennis: Could feel it, and I don't even know you. I beat that shell as well, and I felt empty inside when my hand was raised.
Dennis: I don't want to be you. I don't want that match four years, or five years from now when you're on the decline and just don't have it anymore. When you returned last week, i was filled with joy and excitement.
Dennis: It took my mind off of Madison and R.D. Money, but not for long. The more you spoke, the more it worried me. You look a little older. You look tired. But your words are still as confident as ever.
Dennis: The fact that you're back is a sign that I can't be silent any longer. Your dominance as the Ex Champion is an inspiration to me. But that dominance, followed by your departure also killed a division...a culture...a mindset that men of our style should be clamoring to be a part of.
Dennis: But as much as I blame you, I take equal part of the blame for not being here soon enough to dethrone you so that the more athletic side of this company have a target.
Dennis: While you were away, I was stuck inflicting my will on men that were exhausted after five minutes, when I could have been reviving the Ex with you.
Dennis rolls his shoulders into a shrug while taking in the mixed reaction to his statements.
Dennis: With your return, you can spend your time competing against guys that are just going to wet themselves when your music hits.
Dennis: Or, you can spend one of your matches trading kicks with someone who respects that title as much as you do, perhaps even more than you do. After all, The Ex Division Title is why I came to Riot. Now, who am I to be bored with people are only a year?
Dennis: Who am I to challenge you after you've crushed so many hopes of rising stars? Easy. I'm not some fresh faced young blood that wants to make a name off your back.
Dennis: I'm going to make a name for myself by inflicting my will on the best of Riot and Turmoil for years to come.
Dennis: A match with you is purely to test myself, not to make a name. My bucket list. A list of men that inspire me to be the best, period.
Dennis: This match doesn’t need to be for either of my titles, or for your Ex Title. Hell, the match doesn’t even need to be aired. I could care less if it never sees the light of day.
Dennis: I simply want...no...need this match to experience what it’s like to trade kicks and knees with someone that simply isn’t trying to ‘survive’ me in hopes of achieving a win out of pity or my boredom.
Dennis: I need to experience what it is like to kick someone’s face repeatedly and have them stand back on their feet without an ounce of fear or doubt in their core.
Dennis: I’m not going to get that anywhere else, and you’ll never stand across someone again that doesn’t have a yellow stream running down the side of their leg when you arrive.
Dennis: So...the ball is in your court. Find yourself an easy match with the time you do have, or, come see for yourself how bright the future is.
Dennis: Who knows, maybe i’ll surprise you as well. The days of our style being considered lethal isn’t going to die anytime soon, because i’m not going anywhere. I’ll be here, waiting for you.
Dennis nods confidently before setting the mic down in the center of the ring as the scene comes to a close.
The camera pans to the announce team.

I didn't think Our Turmoil Champion could be unlikeable! |

Wait wait, when someone says the truth you find them unlikable? Kid's telling it like it is! |
