The warm air of Italy is blowing through the night, soft and calm as the scene opens up on the top of a grassy hill. Down below is a small structure in the shape of a dome. Panning down it a figure appears from the inside and leans against the side walling as the cameras come in closer. Dressed in a pair of jeans shorts and a classic green and black aloha shirt is Seifer. His hair is behind him and he has a gym bag over his shoulder with a slightly red face from an intense workout session. He looks out into the view for a moment before beginning to speak.
“Every year a tournament is organized with the winner making it into the Finals of the Master of the Domain at the Pay Per View. The way it was designed was for the winner of the tournament to have earned the right to face the current Master. Yet, it hasn’t always worked out that way, has it? The first year obviously it couldn’t and so Mark Cain defeated Mandi Draven, Harmony and Korey Karnage to become the first ever MOD Champion. Yet one would think that it would be him versus Valek the following year, but I think for some reason that didn’t quite work out. Keep in mind though that I said I think, they may have fought but since the archives were destroyed by fires, I am not for sure. Point is, Valek became the next MOD Champion and so the following year that very confusion settled in, and we ended up with Mark Cain beating Valek at Beyond Redemption for the right to fight for the MOD Championship. As most might know Valek never cut a promo for that match, much like Mark Cain didn’t cut one for MOD. Long story short RuCKuS ended up being thrown into the Main Event alongside of Sparrow and became the new MOD Champion. Though he was booked for last year’s event and even took quite the verbal beat down from both Andrew Underwood and myself, he didn’t show up and that was that. So the way it was supposed to be�?well really hasn’t been that way at all�?until now.�?/FONT>
Seifer flashes a grin now as he unbuttons his shirt from the top down, pushing it to the side and revealing the Master Championship.
“Because now for the first time ever you will indeed be seeing your current Master of the Domain defending his belt against the winner of the tournament, Da Sweet Lunatic. First off before I go any further, DSL, I know you already know who I am and of me much like I know of you some, so allow me to follow my little jump-in intro with some formalities. I am much looking forward to facing you for the title and seeing if you have what it takes to be the Master. You did one hell of a job getting here and for that I congratulate you. That being said, allow me to clear up what many mainstream fans, wrestlers, and critics alike have read over the internet. Yes, I originally was not going to be competing at this year’s MOD Pay Per View. For one as most know I’ve been on what I like to call a ‘seication�? And other than the KoPWT tournament I took part of, I haven’t been on any active roster for quite some time. And it’s not that I didn’t respect BUD or my title, but when I first began in BUD I actually had to bow out of this very tournament due to other obligations I had going on and it was that year in which the tournament was fucked up with the addition of Ruckus for no valid reason whatsoever. I was always one who believed that if you’re going to be running a yearly tournament, isn’t it fair if the champion should have to prove they are the best and run through it again? It’s how all the other sports do it, but then again wrestling isn’t quite like other sports and allows for a hell of a lot more creativity when it comes to such things. That aside, I also have ventures that I have been working on for the past few years, and recently in the past few months that have taken up a large amount of my time. So Jazmyne, if you were under the assumption that I’ve done nothing but sat on a beach and sipped on margarita’s, then you’re going to be in for a rude awakening. Although…�?/FONT>
Seifer tips his head up and winks.
“If you want to hook up for some margarita’s when this is all over you just lemmie know, after all what can be hotter than an immortal getting drunk with a lunatic?!�?/FONT>
Seifer laughs slightly as he shakes his head.
“So yes, if I had my way I would have been able to participate in the tournament. But that’s neither here nor there because the way BUD runs things is that the tourney winner has to prove themselves worthy of facing the champion who already did so the previous year. So in that respect, I understand why they run things that way. Now onto why I’m back. Well for two reasons. Number one, Nova bailed on BUD again and left Roxy without a Main Event. People may talk shit about the woman and how she runs things, I may have said a thing or two, but yet how many of those were truly successful here? Luckily I have that ability to be successful anywhere I go but that’s beside the point.�?/FONT>
A grin, I know you missed him!
“And seeing as how I AM the Champion, it’s only right that it is I who steps up to the plate and defends my title. That was one of the reasons but not the underlying reason, sorry Rox. The underlying reason is pretty much what I just said, I’m the mutha fuckin�?Master of the Domain! What is it that champions do? They defend their championship with pride. I’ll give you my favorite example. Alonzo Mourning. Has played with the Heat for a long time. A few years ago he underwent kidney transplant surgery and worked his way through that and made his return to basketball. He said he had come back for one reason, to win a championship. So therefore either he said or it was assumed that if he won that championship he’d retire, cause that’s why he came back, right? Well, low and behold this past year the Miami Heat did win the NBA Championship and guess what? Zo didn’t retire. I caught an interview with him on Quite Frankly, shout out to my man Stephen A. by the way. Anyways! He said that if he were to win he’d be back to defend the title. Why? “Cause you gotta defend the championship man�? My feelings exactly Zo.�?/FONT>
Seifer removes the Master Championship from his waist and slings it over his shoulder as he walks over to the side of the building, away from the entrance.
“In this company despite what my ego might tell you, it’s not all about the wins and losses. Sure, I may have a few loses compared to tons and tons of wins, but at the end of the day I still have a few losses. Yet you know what is one thing that separates my title losses for example from some other people? None of mine were bullshit. I never once had a title match that I didn’t cut a promo for, that I didn’t show up for. I may not have had all the time in the world as I’d like and therefore losses against wrestlers like NaTo or Amethyst or Justin or Rebecca are sketchy and people who like to talk shit say I willingly jobbed to them, but at least I showed up and didn’t just not show up to ‘save face�? Because while their ego may claim to not have been beaten, people see that and look down upon it, I know I do. By the way Jazmyne if you’re going to use those title losses against me do note that after that I did end up pinning all of them at one point or another, just for the record!�?/FONT>
Seifer flashes one of those arrogant smiles that people have been accustomed to seeing.
“I like to push myself and I like to push my competition. Here’s a little secret for you DSL or anyone who has ever questioned me or why I’m as good as it gets, it’s because I push people. I take their games and when they go up against me, assuming we both have the time to properly prepare for the match, and I raise their games to levels you wouldn’t believe was possible. No, this is not an ego boost either for I will be commenting on it later, don’t you worry Myne. This is why I love the competition because win or lose, not very many people can say that someone pushed them to higher levels. So you can bet that when someone forces me to raise my game to make sure to stay atop of theirs, I’m going to do that. Infact I fucking love doing that. Now Jazmyne, I know you worked in ICWA under WallStreet, him and I actually go back a few years so I’m going to quote him for a moment here. At one point back in PWT, this was during my World title run and I don’t think you were active there yet, he made a statement along the lines of how when people raise their game up a notch, I raise mine three. That’s not hype nor arrogance my friends, that is fucking fact. I’ll be the first to admit that as time has gone on I’ve become more workable in the world of wrestling, but I still don’t like to lose. So you can best believe that though it’d be cool seeing a female capture the MOD Championship, I just can’t allow that to happen on my watch. No, no, I won’t allow that to happen on my watch. Because like it or not, I am the Master Champion and I take pride in that. I take pride in every championship I win actually. So just because I haven’t had a match here in BUD since February doesn’t mean that I don’t want this. Just because I’ve tasted the fruits that only three others before me have tasted doesn’t mean I’m not greedy in wanting to keep eating that damn tasty fruit. And DSL I’ll tell you straight up, it tastes daaaaaaaaaamn good!�?/FONT>
Seifer grins as he walks over to the side and takes a seat on the bench across from the entrance of the workout facility.
“Can’t you taste it? I do hope I’m not making it too unbearable for you because it’s a fruit you will not be tasting this year. Sorry girl, I guess you’re going to have to try again next year.�?/FONT>
At this moment Seifer nods to the side where he had a hummer limo waiting for him. A man steps out and makes his way over to Seifer, handing him a briefcase.
“Thank you Barnibus.�?/FONT>
Seifer’s long time friend nods his head and gets back into the back of the limo as Seifer opens up the briefcase and pulls out some papers.
“Do you know what I have right here Ms. Garcia? I have some very important papers. So important infact…�?/FONT>
He takes the papers and rips them, placing them back into the briefcase and closing it as he tosses it to the side with a straight look on his face.
“That they are not important at all! I just figured it would look more professional with a briefcase and these uber important papers.�?Snicker. Oh ya, we are bad ass. “Although I don’t think statistics have anything to do with anything when it comes to sports of any kind and the outcome of them, but since everyone mentions it and we all know wrestling isn’t that big as a sport since it’s also a form of entertainment, I figured I would take the time to mention it instead. As I said before, I don’t know all the details of how MOD 2003 went down so I won’t comment and before that it didn’t count in reference to this. But you won the MOD Tournament this year, didn’t you? So riddle me this, what do Andrew Underwood and Sparrow have in common? They both won the tournament yet didn’t win the MOD. I personally feel Sparrow got jipped but then again so do many others and I’m sure Andrew feels he got jipped but someone has to win and not everyone is going to be pleased. Fact is, the last two Tourney winners didn’t win the title, where do you think that leaves you? Well we’ll have to see Sunday night, but I just wanted to toss that info out because stats can be interesting. By the way since I don’t know how much preparing you’ve done for our match, I’ll fill you in on the quick detail. Yes, I did lose to Andrew in the tournament finals but because Ruckus was showing signs of no showing, Andrew proved what kind of a man he really was and gave me a chance to compete for the MOD. And for that he still has my respect, even if he does live about twenty some years into the future! And I guess had I told Roxy that I wouldn’t be able to compete for this, then Stryker would have gotten the nod. The only difference here is that I said I would return for this match. And when I say I’m going to be in a match, I’m going to be in that damn match. Perhaps that’s one of the reasons why people love me as champion, who knows. Maybe it’s my never ending talent and charisma.�?/FONT>
Seifer flashes that one of a kind smirk, you know the one. It’s so one of a kind everyone uses it and probably only Dante and I actually comment on how over used it is. Yeah, that one.
“Now I know I’ve gone on for quite some time but I just want to lay out the ground works for our match. So let me move over to you DSL. I’m going to make this as short and simple as possible. I’m not over looking you. Roxy may have, Valek may have, but I’m neither of them. Now honestly I really don’t know what you think of me or anything of that matter because we have never met other than a brief pass by or two backstage in other companies but I do know some of you. I’ve seen you around in NRA, ICWA, PWT, and a couple other federations so I know what you’re capable of. I know not to take you lightly because I know damn well you can kick my ass if I give you too much room to really get into any kind of a groove. Roxy and Valek are no small obstacles and I know that everyone had already figured them in to beat you and yet here you stand, having proved them wrong. But let us not dwell on the past because now it is just you and me Jazmyne, this is the big fucking time.�?/FONT>
“The big time, something I’ve become more than accustomed to. Competing in the Main Events on some of the grandest stages of all. Winning some of the top championships this business has to offer, beating some of the best the world has ever seen, oh yes, I’ve been there and done it all. But it’s not about my accomplishments, because believe me I can go on a list and brag and brag but doing that isn’t going to get me anywhere, now is it? I mean, I’ve watched you long enough to know that you’re not a woman who is going to be easily intimidated, if at all. So I’m not even going to bother. I mean sure, I could comment on your victory against Valek and tell you that I killed him once, but it wouldn’t intimidate you. Or at least I would hope if you’re as crazy as you seem to be that it wouldn’t. Nah, I know you’re going to give me one hell of a fight and I’m looking forward to it.�?/FONT>
Seifer leans to the side for a moment before looking up towards the camera.
“You just remember one thing as you go about this. I know you probably keep in some sort of contact with the very few of my jealous haters out there. So if you try and use what info they give you against me, you’re going to get trumped so hard you won’t even know why you bothered in the first place. You don’t want to battle me verbally because I always win. I’ve developed that not giving a fuck attitude a long time ago so don’t think I’m going to hold back if you choose to come at me thinking you’re going to beat me because I have a tendency to show signs of arrogance. I mean hey, if you want to go down that route, be my guest. But I personally think you’re smarter than that. One because it’s predictable, two because it only gets me even more pumped up which makes me that much more unstoppable once I get going, and three because I think you’ve already devised a plan on how you’re going to try and beat me, or at least some sort of strategy. So like I’ve been saying all of this time, bring it on DSL. Bring on all the heat you can bring because the Master is ready for it. By winning the tournament you earned the honor of facing the returning for one match at the moment Seifer. But that’s where it stops. Jazmyne, I look forward to hearing from you, cause you’ll be hearing from me again real soon.�?/FONT>
Seifer winks at the camera as it fades off. He stands up and tosses his bag back over his shoulder and heads over to the limo and enters, Barnibus is inside leaning up against the back seat.
“How’d it feel?�?/FONT>
“Excellent actually. It’s felt like ages since I’ve cut a proper promo. It felt really good. Now I just hope DSL doesn’t get cold feet and lose all the momentum she had going into this thing.�?/FONT>
“Well you know it could be part of her plan.�?/FONT>
“Which is why I’m not taking any chances. She’s mine Barnibus. I haven’t felt this pumped in a long time. I actually want to win this bad boy again. So let’s take a few hours and then later on I want to go for another session.�?/FONT>
�?/FONT>I’m glad you haven’t lost that desire Seifer.�?/FONT>
“I’m still sitting in the throne and the crown is still on my head. But I too have something to prove. I want to prove that I am the true Master of the Domain. The throne is mine to defend, and defend I shall.�?/FONT>
The limo drives away as the scene fades to black.
