MATCH THREE
Austin Aries Vs. Michael McGillicutty
-#1 Contender for the Breakout Championship-
--------------------------------------
P R O L O G U E
[ Revolution was upon EBWF. Michael McGillicutty was about to make his début on the big stage... Warfare! Now this man isn't like any other man because Michael McGillicutty comes right in with a #1 contenders match for the breakout championship. If it was truly the plan of Mike to change the face of the company then getting some gold around his waist was a good way to start. But before all of that, he had to get through the self proclaimed 'greatest man to ever live' Austin Aries, no easy task. It was time for Mike to step up to the big time and deliver. He has had a taste for revolution, he's made a plan for the future... Now it was time strike. Start your engines. ]

| getting your facts straight |
[ We find ourselves in a film studio for EBWF. Mike McGillicutty is due to film a segment which is to air on EBWF.com to allow the fans of the show get to know him a little better. The segment is meant to be a short one just as a teaser for McGillicutty and gives him the chance to put his feelings across to the EBWF Universe.
McGillicutty is fashionably late (naturally) and he struts into the studio wearing a plain white t-shirt with stylish ripped jeans. McGillicutty also wears a pair of RayBan sunglasses that more keen followers may have seen before. He grins as he enters, removing the sunglasses just before he speaks. ]
THE REVOLUTION || MICHAEL MCGILLICUTTY
Alright... I'm here so lets get this thing over with, what's a man got to do for some professionalism around here!
[ Mike stands for a while simply staring at anyone who dared to look his way. Eventually a small weedy figure approached Mike who's general appearance seemed to make Mike chuckle ]
THE REVOLUTION || MICHAEL MCGILLICUTTY
Boy why are you wearing a suit that is at least two sizes too big for you? Tell me did you pick it out yourself or did your Mommy do it for you after she changed your diaper this morning? [ Mike puts his index finger in the air to indicate that he isn't finished talking yet ] As a matter of fact don't answer that, I don't want to know about any kind of Oedipus complexes you and your family have, I've just had lunch and I don't fancy seeing it again. Who on God's green earth are you anyway boy?
[ The man swallows the lump in his throat for a second and coughs nervously. He rather self consciously corrects his suit and tie before also straightening his glasses too. ]
THE NERD || TODD GRISHAM
My name is Todd Grish...Grisham... Todd Grisham... Hello Michael
THE REVOLUTION || MICHAEL MCGILLICUTTY
It's Mister McGillicutty... Can we get started here or what!
THE NERD || TODD GRISHAM
Oh right... Mister McGillicutty of course... YES! Right... yes.... Right away sir please follow me
[ Todd cracks a nervous smile as Mike rolls his eyes at how timid the small man before him is. Mike begins to follow Todd through some double doors and into a smaller room which has a camera already set up for him. The room contains two steel chairs which have been set facing one another and also a small wooden table which has two glasses of water on it. Mike does not seem impressed with the set up he sees before him ]
THE REVOLUTION || MICHAEL MCGILLICUTTY
WOW! I mean... WOW this is the service that wrestling royalty gets around here. I mean I know that the budget of this dump is a little tight hence why they employ people fresh off the paper round such as yourself Grisham but REALLY! Chairs taken from the cheap seats... Tap water no doubt and then this camera looks like it was bought from the back of a pick up truck! You know what... Whatever this company will soon learn to treat me with some respect after I plant a right hook onto Austin Aries' chin, pin him down and continue my revolution here. Lets get on with this shall we
[ Grisham goes to speak but decides that it's best if he just keeps his mouth shut. He takes a seat on the left hand side of the camera, McGillicutty taking the vacant right hand side chair. Once the camera crew is happy with set up, Grish and Mike have mini microphones attached to their clothing and we are good to go. ]
THE NERD || TODD GRISHAM
Just before we start Mike, I've been told this segment is all about quick fire Q and A's just as a teaser for the audience to get to know a little about you before your match against Aries
THE REVOLUTION || MICHAEL MCGILLICUTTY
Whatever.... You got twenty minutes before I'm outta' here
[ Grish has a mini panic and flusters around getting his notes from his blazer pocket. He signals to the camera crew that he is now ready to start and as he gets the countdown from 5 he takes a gulp of water to calm his nerves. ]

THE REVOLUTION || MICHAEL MCGILLICUTTY
To become the face not only of this company but to embody everything about what TRUE professional wrestling is
THE NERD || TODD GRISHAM
Any last words for Austin Aries?
THE REVOLUTION || MICHAEL MCGILLICUTTY
Austin... By the time you see this it will be too late for you. There is nothing that you can do to me that I haven't seen before. I'm a third generation wrestler, this business is all that I know. I've seen it change over my lifetime and I'm not happy. Don't get me wrong Aries your not the worst of a bad crowd and there is a chance that maybe one day you'll be able to see my league. But I'm in the zone Austin... This company is my baby and I'm going to mould and shape it into the greatest professional wrestling show the world has ever seen and who knows... If you impress me tonight I may even chuck you a bone now and again when I'm running the place
THE NERD || TODD GRISHAM
And finally a message to all those watching at home
THE REVOLUTION || MICHAEL MCGILLICUTTY
Buckle up!
THE NERD || TODD GRISHAM
Thank you for your time Michael McGillicutty... And good luck in your match
THE REVOLUTION || MICHAEL MCGILLICUTTY
Luck is for losers Todd.
[ CLICK the cameras turn off and the interview is over. Todd goes to shake the hand of Mike but before he can even get out of his seat, McGillicutty is gone and heading for the door. McGillicutty stops and turns for some final words as the camera crew scramble to turn the cameras on just in time to catch it ]
THE REVOLUTION || MICHAEL MCGILLICUTTY
Revolution doesn't wait around to shake hands Todd Grisham... Revolution is closed fist ready to lay into whatever or whomever it sees fit. Monday night at the Garret Coliseum this closed fist is heading directly for Austin Aries' jawline, and directly at the heart of EBWF!
[ With that, Mike turns once again and exits the building. This time the cameras go off for real and the whole building is left stunned. Maybe... Just maybe McGillicutty is on the road to backing up all his talk. There's only one way and place to find out, and that's Monday Night Warfare! ]
