(The scene opens up in a modern looking bedroom, the room isn’t a flashy at all. There is a bed backed up against the wall, a chest of draw at the side with a lamp, a table by the window and a fireplace and above the fireplace is a 32 inch HDTV, near the fireplace is a door leading somewhere. Suddenly silence is broken by the sound of a flushing toilet, shortly after the noise dies back down before being interrupted by the door swinging open and Jason Xavier walking out.He paces around the room for a few seconds. Muttering under his breathe while seemingly on the look out for something. He suddenly stops dead in his tracks as his head snaps to the far corner of the room featuring the dresser blocking the doorway. He strides purposefully over to it and rummages through the various drawers, flicking through stuff, until he finally finds what he was looking for; his trusty hand-held video recorder. A slight sigh of relief can be heard as he clutches it gratefully to his chest and looks up at the non-existent heavens, thankful for not losing possession of the one artifact that allows his twisted thoughts to escape in the open world.)
(He grabs a couple of nearby books and marches back over the center of the room before kneeling down and places the camera on the floor, using the books to prop it up at the appropriate angle. He checks in the viewfinder one last time before setting it to record. Xavier then steps back a couple paces before placing himself gently down in the center of his makeshift haven. Sitting cross-legged on the floor, he closes his eyes and rocks back and forth slightly, using the time to collect his thoughts and change his demeanor from the previously frantic Xavier to the now calm and pensive Xavier. Without raising his bowed head up from the floor, he speaks his first words to the camera before him.)
Jason X: It’s only been one show in MPW, that is all. One freakin’ show and people have already written me off. One show and one loss, Toby Foster surprised me no doubt. I want be making that mistake again.
(Jason now raises his head so that his eyes are level with the viewfinder.)
Jason X: This week however I need to move forward and forget about the first show of MPW. I need to show everyone that I am a guy not to be messed with. This week I face a beast of a competitor, Taufik.
(Jason gives a little sarcastic wink to the camera, before slapping his chest and stretching his arms out as if he were expecting adulation.)
Jason X: I know very little of Taufik but what I do know is that he is somewhat of a suplex messiah. Just like me, I too am fond of the suplex maneuvers.But I have so much more than that in my arsenal of moves, that soon Taufik will find out.
(As Jason Xavier’s train of thought trails off, his eye contact gets broken as he looks off into the distance. This uncomfortable silence is made all the more disturbing by the fact that Xavier is smiling all throughout the staring. Eventually, he closes his eyelids and tilts his head back, breathing in deep before slowly opening his eyes to re-focus on the camera in front of him.)
Jason X: You see Taufik I have nothing against you but unfortunately I need to make an impact here in MPW, an impact that states I am going to be a champion. Sure I have dreams of being the world heavyweight champion like everyone else. But I am a realist, I know it’s going to be a long time before I even get a sniff at the world title scene. But what I do know is the FACT is when I beat you and continue an undefeated streak then Bill Adams has no choice in the matter but give me a championship title match. And believe me I know how to not just represent a company as a champion but bring prestige to it. This company however was born through the death of NYCCW a company I barely made an appearance for. And adopted their wrestler’s contracts. So there is a long list of wrestler’s fighting to be the “top” guy, I have no problems of that. You will soon find out how hard I fight back when needed.
(Jason, still sat cross-legged on the floor, tilts his head to the side and flashes a flippant smile towards the camera before continuing.)
Jason X: I am a guy who doesn’t like to be last in anything and will overcome any odds that is put in front of me, you are that obstacle this week Taufik. Like I said I have nothing against you but I need to make a success of my MPW career and need to start piling up the win column as much as I can. So this week you’ll find out exactly what I am all about. Speed, agility, technician mat wrestling, but most of all heart, passion and determination to win. You and I are going to fight there’s no doubt about it but at the end you’ll find out that I am a tough son of a bitch. I am a man who doesn’t back down and I am a man who will look you in the eye and back up every word I say.
(Jason's head moves back to its original position.)
Jason X:I have trained all week since losing to Toby Forster last week in my home gym downstairs in the basement. I have ran the ropes of my unique wrestling ring I have set up in the back garden, and I am ready. I am ready to stand toe to toe with you Taufik, and trust me I do not fear anyone. You may have a few hundred more pounds on me but I have beaten veterans in my early career. I have embarrassed them and made them look like bitches. I will not be holding back any longer. Taufik you are going to get the true Jason Xavier that’s for damn sure.
(As Xavier acts out the following scene in his head, he leans forwards and points an accusatory finger towards the camera, as if to address Taufik directly.)
Jason X: One thing you and I are different Taufik is I have never seeked out help to train, I have traveled up and down the country looking for training camps and practically pleading and begging for them to allow me to train with them, I do not receive special treatment. I have never asked for special treatment. Inside or outside the ring because that is not the way. I was brought up knowing hard work will get you to the top and I know I will get there. Nothing will stand in my way.
(Jason ties his long hair up into a pony tail with a band tying it before speaking again)
Jason X: I have busted my ass non stop since day one and will continue to bust my ass, eventually when it happens and I have a MPW championship belt around my waist you’ll and everyone else will know I tell the truth. And the truth is at Monday Night Main Event the landscape will change.
(As Jason's rant momentarily subsides, the frown which was etched across Jason's face throughout eases up slightly, allowing a small, wary smirk to escape out the corner of his mouth. His eyes narrow thoughtfully as he looks off into the distance before he returns to the camera with a disarmingly earnest glint in his eye.)
Jason X: Once I destroy the obstacle of you Taufik that stands in my way everyone will realize I mean business. That I do not take shit from anyone and I deserve to be a champion. I soon shall be on top of the mountain here in MPW.
(Through this entire monologue, Jason's demeanor has been surprisingly subdued, however that all changes as suddenly lunges at the camera, violently grabbing in and shooting to his feet. He keeps the lens pointed somewhat accurately as his faces as he peers deep into the lenses, his beady eyes piercing those of the viewer as he shouts with a passion we have yet to see from him here in MPW.)
Jason X: Taufik you don’t stand a chance and what comes you’re way is a destructive force that nobody has ever seen.
(The mix of both passion and anger causes Jason's voice to break momentarily, as he tries his hardest to keep his emotions in check.)
Jason X: We are just early days here in MPW and the company is just starting out but what you don’t know is that MPW already has world class athlete in their mist, ME. Last week against Toby Forster was a fluke, it was a blip that will never happen again. Taufik I am going to beat you on Monday.
(The anger and distain that just poured out of Jason's mouth dissipates as he appears to have somehow found a way to calm himself back down. Keeping the camera fixed on himself with his left hand, he uses his right to wipe away the sweat from his brow, pushing down hard on his face as he moves his hand down to his chin. His hand then moves up towards his right cheek, caressing it almost as a sly smile emerges on the other side.)
Jason X: But the question you need to ask is how do I beat you? Do I totally embarrass you and humiliate you, do I simply beat you and shake your hand and celebrate? Only time shall tell. But one thing is for sure I will be walking out the winner. I will beat your ass at Monday Night Main Event and move forward and up the ladder here in MPW.
(Jason’s face suddenly looks exhausted through the long periods of talking. Now that he has managed to collect himself, the view from the camera goes all shaky as Jason sits back down again, leaning forward to place the handheld recorder back in its makeshift tripod. He leans back again and punctuates the silence with a hearty sigh).
Jason X: I get asked many questions through Twitter, facebook and email and most of the time they the questions are boring and unoriginal. But one question stood out and that question was “Is this match against Taufik the biggest of your career?”.
(A frown comes under the face of Jason as looking bemused as to the question asked by a fan. This doesn’t last long as his eyebrows raises before speaking)
Jason X: Don’t take it the wrong way but No. This match against you Taufik is nothing more than a stepping stone on my way to the top. Another match I have proven to overcome the odds.
(A lighter demeanor appears on the face of Jason as he relaxes more before speaking)
Jason X: So Taufik, you’ll soon find out exactly what I am all about and that is hard work, heart, passion and determination. Whatever you can do in the ring I can pull it off even better, I can do moves you’d only wish you can do. You’ll soon find out all about that though. So Taufik I hope you’re ready because come Monday Night I will have you’re through underneath my boot.
(With that being said Jason’s clicks a button on the handheld cam corder as the scene fades)
(He grabs a couple of nearby books and marches back over the center of the room before kneeling down and places the camera on the floor, using the books to prop it up at the appropriate angle. He checks in the viewfinder one last time before setting it to record. Xavier then steps back a couple paces before placing himself gently down in the center of his makeshift haven.
