OOC: Many years ago, we had an RP where Evan Bourne caught a bullet between his ankles. It still amuses me to this day. I've brought Evan Bourne / Matt Sydal back as a "guest star" for this tournament, so figured I'd have a bit of fun with him. Good luck Seige!
The scene opened backstage at Warfare. A man was looking down. As the camera zoomed in on him, he looked up and smiled.
Matt Sydal: Did you miss me?
Sydal smiled. He looked confident. Relaxed. Slightly glassy eyed.
Matt Sydal: 12 years ago, I made history as the first ever Breakout Champion. So when Xavier Woods reached out to me and invited me to take part in a tournament to determine the new number one contender for the Breakout Championship, there was simply no way I could turn it down. I forced my way through the forbidden door, and here I am. And in the first round, I've been drawn against the leader of the Bullet Club, Prince Devitt. The Bullet Club versus the Bullet Catcher... what a story.
Sydal smirked.
Matt Sydal: Your claim to be a Prince is even more tenuous than Xavier's claim to be a King, Devitt. I could talk a lot about what you are, but I'll tell you what you're not... you are not as fast as me. I am one of the fastest men to every step into the squared circle, one of the greatest high fliers professional wrestling has ever seen, and Devitt, you are quite simply not on my level. The Bullet Club is a shadow of what it was, your only strength is in numbers, but I'll take all of you on if I have to. Fire as many bullets at me as you want... but if won't be enough. I'm bulletproof, baby!
Sydal laughed, made a gun gesture with his hand and "fired" at the camera as the scene drew to a close.
