As the camera comes into focus, it is clear that Eddie is sitting at the head of the Skulls of Grimm cub house table. Members of the club are seated down both of the long sides of the thick wooden table. From Vice President to Sgt in Arm to the other patch in members. Each of them sitting, looking down the table towards the camera with their arms crossed. The main light in the room is focused mainly on the President rather than the rest of the club.
“Well where do I start? I could go back to the beginning and do blow by blow. Really though, what would the point be? Nah, fuck that. I haven't got the time any more than you have! You see I will have a busy night ahead of me at Honor: Heart of Halifax. The whole Cruiserweight Cup tournament will come to an end. You see I am booked into one of the semi final matches. However at the moment I don't have a clue who my opponent will be. You see the other bracket, Donzig got himself disqualified in nearly every match. The other three all managed to trade wins and losses. Now they all have the same amount of points. For now they have a three way tie. So I will need to wait and see who comes out of the Do or Die Elimination match as the victor of the first fall, to know which one I will be facing. Who will it be, the current Cruiserweight champion Rob Garcia, the SWAT Australian champion Vincent Wolf or the strange enigma that is Xiaolong.”
A slight smile starts to emerge across the otherwise serious face.As quick as it appeared the smile disappeared underneath the intense serious look.
“For me it doesn't really matter, which one I will end up beating on my way to the final. Hopefully the guy that I will be facing in the final will be the best that the Cruiserweight division has to offer. I nearly decided to break down what every competitor has done since my arrival here in NPW. honestly what would be the point. The main focus at the moment is the Cruiserweight Cup and nothing else.”
The Vice president throws a picture on to the table top of the first possible opponent A promotional shot of the SWAT Australian Champion, that was taken before the tournament started.
“Vincent Wolf, another star from SWAT. Being a dominant champion over there. Last SWAT star I faced, I sent packing back home to Australia or wherever SWAT is based. Vinnie if you need to face me, champion or not. I will send you running back to the safety of SWAT in no time. You may be a big deal and a dominant midcard champion in SWAT. than does not necessarily translate to you being the same here in NPW. As I have said before, I am the man to beat in this tournament. We will soon find out if you are a big deal as you make out that you are.”
Another picture is thrown on to the table top, this time by the Sgt in Arms.
“Rob Garcia, a Revenant. The guy that is currently holding what I seek. That last match just… Wow. How did you manage to overlook Xiaolong and get yourself pinned in the middle of the ring? Sooner or later I will get a shot at that title whether you are holding it still or not. It will be like the victory you had over Lochlyn Cade to win the title. The only difference will be standing tall over the former Cruiserweight champion, regardless of who was holding the title at that time.”
Eddie pusheds the third picture down the table next to the other ones.
Xiaolong, where do I start? Out of the three guys, you are the only one that I have already shared the ring with in the past. To be fair you didn't pick up a win until the last event when somehow you pinned Garcia. I am beginning to wonder if that was more luck than anything else .Fair enough you won the match against Donzig via Disqualification, but so did the other two!”
Sitting back in his seat, Eddie takes a moment to look across the table at the three pictures. Looking at the challenge that lies before him.
“If any of you make the mistake of trying to overlook me in the match, then you will be paying the price by finding yourself eliminated from the tournament. So I get to face the guy that manages to get the first fall in the Do or Die Elimination match. Whether that will be Xialong, the current North American Cruiserweight champion Rob Garica or the Australian Champion Vicent Wolf. It doesn't seem like that any of them have had a great run in the tournament so far. Each of them picking up two wins and a loss. You may be saying to yourself, hang on a minute, your record in the tournament hasn't been much better either. One win and two draws. The main fact here is that I haven't lost a match yet. The last time I checked a draw, I still earned a point, unlike a loss. So no matter who I face in my next match. The other guy will be walking into the match knowing that they have lost a match and I haven't been beaten yet in this tournament, trust me that is going to eat away at you before the bell even rings to start the match.”
