Nightfall, begins the scene as the camera fades up, it's opening frame pointed towards the bright moon above. The camera slowly begins to start it's descent from the moon to two men, brand new to the FGA audience. While most stood in front of screens, the backdrop was a bit different then most. A faint fire could be seen in the background to the man covered in tattoo's right. While the man on his left, covered mostly in darkness to match his jet black hair, plain black jumpsuit, black and grey gloves, black wrestling boots and the eerie mask, with a pair of steel blue eyes peering out from them. His eyes were one's that had focus, drive, and fire burned into the camera before him. It was all you could see of the man on the left, but he wasn't the one to talk, it was the man on the right. Wearing a pair of blue jeans, a shirt for the 'Night of the Living Dead', tattoo's covering his arms like sleeves, sunglasses over his eyes and a black and silver walking cane.
...manager of greatness... JONATHAN VALENTINE: 'Fear, it's an emotion induced by a perceived threat which causes entities to quickly pull far away from it and usually hide. It is a basic survival mechanism occurring in response to a specific stimulus, such as pain, or the threat of danger. Fear is the ability to recognize danger leading to an urge to confront it or flee from it, but in extreme cases of fear, even horror, or terror, a freeze or paralysis response is possible. With the man standing next to me, the man you people here in FGA have never witnessed. You will learn, that fleeing is your only option of survival. Oh trust me, I know you guys will think you are all tough guys, thinking you're going to be the one who will stand and deliver. You will be the one to shut me up, and defeat this man to my right. I am Jonathan Valentine, this man is 'The Greatest Show on Earth' X-Spot. Of course you may ask yourself, Mr. Valentine, how is he the greatest show on earth? Please tell me how you can lay claim with all these talented men and women here in FGA, and all over the world. I won't tell you how, he won't even tell you, instead ... instead on July 6th, 2013. X-Spot will show you why he IS the greatest show on earth. You see it's not a nickname, it's not some ego boost, it's a way of life for him, he does what he wants, when he wants, however he wants to make sure you never forget who he is. At the Connecticut Convention Center, in Ballroom B, Kevin Hardaway, you will be the first to find out that harsh reality.'
Taking a deep breath, X-Spot just stood there and starred at the camera. The man didn't talk, he didn't even blink, his eyes just looked at the camera, looking through it like he was looking into the soul of everyone that was watching Mr. Valentine talk right now. It was a very eerie feeling as the man known as X-Spot didn't say much, didn't say anything yet. He was the one fighting one of the top superstars in FGA on July the 6th, but yet, the man who would stand in his corner was doing the talking.
...manager of greatness... JONATHAN VALENTINE: 'Yes, let's talk about you Kevin Hardaway. You're a big deal here, you were the first Pride champion in FGA, correct? I mean at the last supershow for FGA, you were in one of the biggest matches of the night. You were the only man left against The Murder, and you almost did the unthinkable. You were that close from picking up the victory. You had the best showing out of everyone, so I mean what chance does this man to my right have against you? What chance does he have against the Unbreakable Kevin Hardaway right? This is where your downfall will be Kevin, this is where your demise will come from. You're on cloud nine right now, riding off the waves of emotion of almost pulling out a win, where you had no chance in winning. You had nothing to lose when you got into the ring and you went for it, and almost got it. You had nothing ... to lose, but now? You have everything to lose. Let's play a game here, let's just say on July the 6th, this man to my right actually does beat you. Let's just say he defeats you after all that incredible effort at All-Star Showdown II. Then what? Then what happens to you Kevin Hardaway, what happens when it proves that you aren't so Unbreakable. What happens when X-Spot breaks ... your ... jaw. THEN WHAT! Will you fight, or will you flee Kevin, will you hide or will you conquer? I'll tell you what you will do, when you stand face to face with X-Spot, you will flee, you will hide, or you will learn what suffering really is.'
Jonathan Valentine began to chuckle a little bit as he looked over to X-Spot, who showed no emotion. X-Spot just looked forward, taking a deep breath as his eyes narrowed a little bit. You could feel the anger coming from him as he took a step forward closer to the camera, his eyes driving a knife into the camera with just the anger coming from his eyes alone. Mr. Valentine took a step forward to go talk, but X-Spot looked at him which caused him to back up, chuckling a little bit. X-Spot could talk and one thing was apparent, with every word he spoke, you could hear the anger, and the fire in his voice.
...greatest show on earth... X-SPOT: 'I've heard it, I've heard all the cheers. All the talk about how I got no shot against you. How you are going to walk right through me and win the Frontier Lions Cup. You must be laughing to yourself, how did you get so lucky to face a newcomer in the Qualifying Round, right? So typical, not having a clue what you're up against, having no idea who I am. You will learn who I am Kevin Hardaway, and you will learn ... painfully. I will break your jaw, I will make you suffer, and I will hurt you.'
X-Spot backed up a little bit as he was shaking with anger a little bit, you could feel the snarl coming from under his mask as he looked at the camera, like he was looking right at Kevin Hardaway. Mr. Valentine whispered something over to him which caused him to take a deep breath and relax a little bit as Mr. Valentine smirked a bit, taking point with the talking once again.
...manager of greatness... JONATHAN VALENTINE: 'This man has been all over the world, he's fought in Japan, Europe, Mexico, South America, the United States, Canada. He has defeated countless superstars, been on top of the world many times, and here we are, putting his name on the dotted line, and yet so many doubters. So many people think Kevin Hardaway is going to walk away with this one because they are familiar with him. Well guess what, their is a changing of the guard here in FGA, and you are looking at the gate keepers. I almost feel bad for you Kevin, having to be the first man to feel the pain that this man inflicts on his opponents. We hope you bring your momentum, we hope you bring your former glory, we hope you bring your very best Kevin Hardaway, because you're going to need it. Kevin, please take my words seriously, don't pretend like this is a joke. Don't pretend like you have nothing to worry about, because you do. I will tell you, if you want to make this a joke, then the joke will be on you, and you won't be coming back ... any time soon.'
A smirk escaped his lips as Mr. Valentine tapped his cane on the ground as X-Spot could only stare ahead once again. While not much was known between these two, one thing was for sure, their was a bit of a mystery surrounding the two of them. Especially the man that would be climbing into the ring with one of FGA's hottest superstars. Sometimes the moment could be too big for one man, but with X-Spot, the only one that could answer that would be himself.
...manager of greatness... JONATHAN VALENTINE: 'You see, Kevin Hardaway, you're just the start. The rest of FGA should be worried, the rest of the people in this Lions Cup should be worried. X-Spot is going to win this, and you can take that to the bank. You see, X-Spot is unlike something you have ever had to face before, and for that. For that you should be worried about your fate in this tournament, and your fate in the pecking order. It's just a matter of time before real talent shows through. Remember how I told you that X-Spot is the Greatest Show on Earth? That's because he truly is, and it starts on July the 6th when he shocks the world. When he shocks FGA to it's core, and does his own unthinkable, by taking out the heavy favorite. Now I wouldn't be too upset about it Kevin Hardaway, it's just a case of bad timing. You will remember this day, you will remember this time, the beginning of a new era here in FGA. FGA, Kevin Hardaway on July the 6th, you have all been warned, Greatness is now ...'
...greatest show on earth... X-SPOT: 'UPON US!!!'
X-Spot pushed the camera in front of them over to the ground below them. The fire that was burning had now burned out as you could see the outline of the two pairs of feet for both of the men walking away into the distance. Time would tell if these two were all talk, or if X-Spot was going to do everything Jonathan Valentine said. One thing was for sure, FGA was in for something they had never experienced before, and that alone, makes the debut of X-Spot very ... very interesting.
FADE TO BLACK!
