The cuts had begun to heal, and Zarek was back to his old self, for now at least. Only a few hours earlier, Zarek had been in a mental breakdown, causing him to throw things, and smash anything he could find, one main thing in being glass. In his quest to smash anything worth smashing, anything that would make a loud noise when destoryed, Zarek had paid no attention to the pain he had been causing himself. In doing so, Zarek had cut himself many times, so now he had some cuts, depth vary, on his chest and back. It wasn't the fact that Zarek had lost to Manic that caused his mental breakdown, but more the fact the he had been the cause of his own downfall. In miscalculating how much Manic would move during his move, Zarek missed, which gave Manic the oppurtunity to take control and get the victory. Strategic, yes? Wise? No. For the simple fact that the match was to close for comfort, and the ending was a sloppy as the burgers they serve in school cafeterias on television. Zarek would be back to claim his victory, and his superiority, against Manic, that's for sure.

When Abram found Zarek, he gave him a little pep talk, as well as told him about the free-for-all for a chance at the BUDvision Championship. It was going to be an interesting week for Zarek, that's for sure. One extreme being that Zarek's win at 2007 Wayz 2 Die would be considered a fluke, and he would lose his chance at the BUDvision Championship as well, possibly forever. The other extreme being that Zarek proves, once again, that he is better than Evan Pierce, and gains a chance to compete for the BUDvision Championship. Somewhere in between would most likely be the outcome, but it would definitely be great to accomplish such a feat. After the smashing fest Zarek had, Abram brought him back to the arena, believing it would be good for it, in order for him to see where he belongs and to get his priorities straight.

The camera focusus on a man at the soda machine. The man pushes a button and the soda falls down into the pit of the machine. Turning around, it's revealed that the man is none other than Zarek Lyle. He flashes a smile towards the camera, knowing that this week will be one worth taping. His first order of buisness, his lose to Manic last week.."Manic, congradulations, you managed to capatalize on a situation where I miscalculated. I applaud you, you definitely know how to get the upperhand on your opponent. I must admit, I was my own downfall, and you got the victory fair and square, but don't think this is the end of me. You beat the hell out of me? Hell, were you there? I'll be the first to tell you that I'm no genius, but that match was strictly even right up until the end. Now don't take me for one of those people who just keep coming and coming, not knowing that their opponent is simply better than them, cause we haven't even become close to that point. One match to show for in our case, is nothing. If you beat me a second time, than that's something you can be proud of, and I will gracefully bow down, but until then, you're still on my list. Fortunantly for you, my backlash from this loss won't be taken out on you. Oh no, there is a man out there who is looking for a re-match with me, and he will be the one to feel the backlash."

Abram McCallister, the manager, and brains behind Zarek, enters the scene. He wears a pair of jeans, a loose black t-shirt and a hoody, his usual attire. He has a sarcastic smile on his face, knowing Evan is in for a treat this week. "Unfortunantly for Evan Pierce however, he was so bright as to request a rematch from 2007 Wayz 2 Die. In my opinion, that wasn't such a smart idea. Evan, you couldn't get the job done in the first place, which should have been easy considering the circumstances, what makes you think you'll get it done this time, considering it's a one-on-one." Abram laughes, remembering exactly what happened in the events leading up to 2007 Wayz 2 Die. In the eys of Abram, both Evan and Corey were cowards for doing what they did, Evan didn't deserve a re-match, Zarek on the other hand, believed Evan was worth something.

Zarek laughes a bit with Abram, but definitely not as much. Zarek thinks that Evan Pierce is a dying breed and needs a little coaxing to get out of this obvious rut he is in. At the same time, Zarek challenges his ability, and wonders if he still has any left after everything. "So Evan, this does seem a bit familiar, doesn't it? Me looking across the ring at none other than yourself, except, things are a bit different this time around, aren't they? This time, it's just you and I, the way it was supposed too be before Corey Vega was thrown into the match at 2007 Wayz 2 Die. There is a simple question that has been going around though, as Abram pointed out, what makes you think you'll be able to get the job done this time around? At 2007 Wayz 2 Die, the odds were stacked up against me. Myself, an unknown to everyone here in BUD, against you, the returning veteran, and Corey Vega, the regular. Now, that is the way things started out, but that's not the way things stayed, is it? Nope, apparently, after my first promo, yourself and Vega got a bit worried. Obviously, because if both of you had been perfectly aware of these abilities, that both of you insisted that I didn't possess, then you wouldn't have joined forces. So pretty much by the time the actual match at 2007 Wayz 2 Die rolled around, it was a handicap match. The team of Corey Vega and Evan Pierce against Zarek Lyle, although it was still cast as a triple threat match."

There was definitely a lot of speculation surounding this match, and it was beginning to pick up some steam. Putting a contendership spot for the Franchise Championship for them to fight over didn't help with the situation, either. There were some that believed that Evan was past his due, and would never regain the ability that he once had. There were others that were still awaiting his great return as the wrestler he used to be. Most of the roster, on the other hand, didn't look at Evan Pierce very highly anymore. Especially after him, teamed with Corey Vega, fell vicitm to Katrina Bensen and Lori Ann McMahon last week. Both divas were definitely not among the ones mentioned in the greatest divas of all time, and that's what made the loss even more humiliated. The circulating question was, Is it time for Evan Pierce to be let out to pasture?

Evan opened the Vault energy drink that he still hadn't opened yet, from the vending machine. It makes a loud pop and a short fizzle in openingn it. He takes a sip of it before continuing. "We all know what happens next, I kick both of your asses at 2007 Wayz 2 Die, and leave you with your tail between your legs. Your own assumptions about me left you with no victory in your returning match, which must have been painful for you. Evan Pierce, given so much hype that it's unbelieveable, crashes and burns against a newcomer of the buisness. Not only that, but then you and Vega lost against PMS the coming week, what a great team you two make. You know, maybe it's just me Evan, but you are slowly but surely depreciating in value. You're like a car, as long as you use it, it slowly becomes useless, and Evan, you may have reached your point. You've disappointed me Evan, I honestly expect more from you, but you didn't give me that. Than you walk into the ring with PMS, which one member got demolished by Dannica later that night, and totally got your ass kicked against a couple of girls. Don't get me wrong, there are some powerful ladies in this industry. Rebecca Rancid, Dannica, Georgia James, Whisper, but Katrina Bensen and Lori Ann McMahon do not fit into that category."

Abram glances at the peice of paper, writes something down on it, and turns back to the audience.. "As we all know, Monday night isn't just about Evan and Zarek, one-on-one. Apparently, Bobby Johnson took his leave from BUD, leaving his BUDvision Championship vacated. Here's where things get a bit interesting, there's already loads of people that have entered the free-for-all that management has set up. I am officially entering Zarek into this free-for-all. This should most definitely be interesting, and of course, you know what that means, don't you?"

"In my book, that means that payback comes a bit sooner" The camera focuses in on the peice of paper, which Abram has gone through and calculated the people that have entered the BUDvision free-for-all. The one name it focuses on is Manic's.

Abram laughes, thinking of his own situation with Deacon Frost "In my case, I didn't have to enter a free-for-all in order to get a chance at revenge. All I had to do was come to the ring with a friend." The pair walk around the corner and Abram spots Kimberly Pain. "Speak of the devil..."

Kimberly turns around and smiles at Abram, "Hello again."

Zarek has been told of what happened with Kimberly helping Abram, but has never been introduced to her. He is surprised that the two know each other, with Zarek never actually seeing Kimberly in person, "And who might you be?..."
