With the match card drawing nearer to a close and only the main event Tag Title match left in the evening, the crowd are pumped and ready for action. One week removed from Dawn of Destruction and the dust still settling from the controversy and belts changing hands sees GHW setting its sights onto the horizon.
"Ladies and gentlemen. The following is tonight's Main Event and is for the GHW Tag Team Titles..."
Charlie Coors's pregnant pause is met with a roar of approval from the capacity crowd. However, before he can introduce the contestants, he is interrupted by an unexpected, yet familiar sound.
CKY's 96 Quite Bitter Beings blasts its way out of the arena's speakers, taking all in the arena by surprise. Looking around with a puzzled look on his face, Coors doesn't quite know what to make of the interruption.
"Come on guys in the production truck. Somebody surfing through GHW Vintage videos on GHW.com again? This is highly unprofessional."[/i]
"Wait a second Fuzz... Is that...?[/i]
A silhouette of a figure is seen standing in front of the GHW backdrop, just inside the entrance curtain to the arena. The shadowy outline reaches up towards his head, tipping aviator sunglasses up from his eyes onto the top of his head. Hayden HardKore steps into the light of the arena, the stunned crowd reacting with a standing ovation and matching roaring chant. The most decorated man in GHW history takes the time to wave at each side of the entrance stage before heading to the ring, shaking hands with fans on either side of the entrance ramp.
"Hayden HardKore hasn't been seen in a very, very long time. He was champion one minute, gone without an explanation the next. Injury, retirement, rehab... All ideas and theories that were thrown around. So...why the hell come back now?[/i]
Hayden takes the steps to the ring, before requesting a microphone from ringside. He flashes a smile at the stage hand who retrieves it for him, a spark in his eye that only being in front of his fans can give him. Wasting no time, the GHW Legend addresses the masses.
"My people... God I have missed this feeling. I wish I could come out here and say that I will be around forever, but it is no secret that Hayden HardKore is in the twilight of his career and I have been for some time now.
First off, let me apologize for my lengthy absence. This business has been good to me, but as one gets older, the body just does not hold up as it should. Recovery time slows down, injuries and soreness take over. For somebody with my style of wrestling and my commitment to giving my damn all, every time I step foot between these ropes, I could not do it at 70 percent.
I have been battling a lower back injury for the past year or so, suffered at the hands of Jake Diamond. This explains my revolving door type of presence here sever since that night. I thought I had it under control, but then came Nexus... and the King of the Deathmatch tournament, and my subsequent title reign. Short turnarounds, brutal matches and an injury plaguing me in the background. My body is falling apart, knees, shoulders, this freaking back and a doctor that tells me 'strictly, no more'.[/i]
Hayden lets his speech sink in and the stunned silence fill the arena before continuing. The usually loud air is tense, awkward. Hayden smiles a cheeky smile and raises the mike once more.
"So, naturally, I am ignoring the doctors strict orders and stepping back in between the ropes... sort of.
You see, I am retiring for good, forever, no more comebacks. But I simply cannot end things like this. I have done too much in this business over the years and you have all given too much to me as well. We both deserve more than a speech and then me riding off into the sunset. Only one thing comes to mind.
One match, the final hurrah, the last throw of the dice. The one match that I have lusted after for all these years. The one man that I have never fought. The one match up that GHW has asked for time and time again, but the cards have never fallen into place... until the very end.
You see, I have always come out to this ring to be one thing... the very best Fighty fighty person in GHW history, the top of the heap. So far, I have done just that. I have won more titles than any man is ever going to around this place. I have simultaneously held all major title belts, and held them from all comers. I have done more in this place than any person in the history of GHW, but one man stands between me and eternal greatness. One name has always come to the forefront of peoples minds when you mention the word greatness, a man that I have always feared to fight just for that reason. One man that can be a fitting end to the hall of fame career of Hayden HardKore.
He needs no introduction, so...
Without so much as an introduction for the man that he has been going on about, Hayden beckons towards the entrance way and waits patiently for the man to arrive.
TBC by they know who
