Nash has a few things to say...

[[We come back from the commercial with JR standing in the ring wearing his traditional cowboy hat and button down shirt. He’s got a mic in his hand and he begins to address the audience.]]

Jim Ross: Well ladies and gentlemen, I’ve been told that we’ve got a live video feed from Kevin Nash at his home in Detroit. Kevin, can you hear me?

[[A live feed from Nash’s office pops up on the Jumbotron. In truth, Nash lives in Florida these days, but he’s always felt like his character should be considered from Detroit. After all, it is where he grew up. So whenever he’s introduced, it’s billed from Detroit, and the audience in this instance are none-the wiser since the window shades are closed.

Nash is leaning in his very large office chair, wearing a black button up shirt, obviously very expensive as it looks like a top of the line and tailored to fit him perfectly. Slung over the back of the chair is a very nice looking Armani suit jacket. Behind him are a few Kevin Nash memorabilia items from over the years; photographs, replica title belts, action figures, bobbleheads, etc. But they are all impeccably arranged on a wall to wall bookshelf. He’s smiling and in a good mood.]]


Kevin Nash: How are you doing JR?

Jim Ross: Well Mr. Nash, I’m doing ok. I understand you wanted this opportunity to speak tonight.

Kevin Nash: Why yes I did, I was wondering if you would mind going through and reading off the announced matches for this evening?

Jim Ross: I…I’m sorry?

Kevin Nash: You’re the best play-by-play man in the business, I’m sure you’ve got tonight’s card memorized. Could you tell me please, what the matches for tonight are?

Jim Ross: Well, tonight’s main event is a Ladder Match between Christian and Ted Dibiase.

[[The crowd pops with anticipation. Nash replied with an over the top enthusiasm...]]

Kevin Nash: WOW! That sounds like a real spiffy main event there JR! If I may borrow a phrase, a slobberknocker, a barn burner, it’s gonna be great. I mean, come on, Christian, Captain Charisma, one of the most under rated workers in the business – and Ted DiBiase, a guy who I’ve been saying all year should basically be main eventing everything. I uh, I couldn’t help but notice, cause the crowd started to cheer pretty loud, was there another participant in that match?

Jim Ross: No, no there is.

Kevin Nash: So, like, no, I don’t know, say AJ Styles?

Jim Ross: No, AJ Styles isn’t in the match.

Kevin Nash: Huh. OK, well, I think naming all the matches might take too long, could you just tell me what match AJ Styles is in tonight?

Jim Ross: He’s not scheduled to be fighting tonight as far as I am aware of.

Kevin Nash: NO! How could it be?! Here I was, sitting at home, watching Warfare, just waiting with anticipation to see AJ Styles tonight – surely he must be somewhere? I mean, he’s been telling me all year that he’s the most popular guy there. He’s the face of the company. He’s THE MAN. And yet, no matches for him?

Jim Ross: Well, I would assume as his new manager you’d –

Kevin Nash: Oh my goodness! JR! That’s right! I’m calling the shots for him these days. How silly of me to forget. Tell me, JR, you’re there, LIVE, in front of a sold out Montreal crowd. Do you think those people paid to see AJ Styles?

[[The crowd pops. Clearly, he’s got a TON of fans in the great white north...]]

Jim Ross: From the sounds of things here, it seems like he’s got a number of fans.

Kevin Nash: Oh I’m sure he has fans. But those people, tonight, they’re getting TED DiBIASE and one of the greatest Canadian superstars of all time CHRISTIAN in a ladder match for the Path to Glory Championship no less. That’s well worth the price of admission alone wouldn’t you say Montreal?!

[[The crowd pops big time. They want to see that match. And they’re excited, cause they’re live, at the heart of pro wrestling, on it’s most important night of the week.]]

Kevin Nash: We'll call this lesson 1 AJ: the crowd may pop. They may cheer. They may love you doing your flips, but when you can’t springboard off the ground 20 times in a match – and someone else can – they’ll forget about you. They’ll find someone new, someone else, someone better, and all you’ll have is a broken body and a head full of memories that are now somehow tainted.

[[The crowd gets quite. Like how children do when they hear their parents arguing. Almost as if they were afraid to speak up or take a side on the issue.]]

Kevin Nash: You’re nothing, until you’re the reason asses are in seats. Right now, you’re the desert. You’re tasty, and maybe you’re even what people leave talking about – but you should be focused on being the main course. The thing that brings them in. Until you’re that – you’re no legend, you’re just a damn good wrestler who never reached the mountain top. How fitting that we’re coming up on Destiny – you may think it’s your destiny to win back the World Title, wrong. World Champions come and go, and they can be replaced. You’re destiny is to become more than a Champion. More than the desert. Destiny awaits AJ, the legend of the Phenomenal One will be written. I promise you that.

[[And with that, Kevin Nash stands up. The Jumbotron goes blank. JR looks over at King sitting behind the booth and shrugs a bit, almost as if he wasn’t expecting things to be wrapped up like that.]]

Jerry Lawler: Well I guess, Kevin Nash wants to see his client do well at Destiny? I don’t know! Kevin Nash has been very mysterious lately…

[[And with that, JR walks back to the announce booth and they continue on with the show...]]
