*Strife stirs around in his locker room and is apporached by Charly Caruso*

Charly: Strife, we have just learned that you will get an opportunity at Bangladesh DuPree's UCA Championship. We just wanted to get your thoughts on your upcoming challenge.

You'll have to forgive me if I seem a little stir crazy. You see, much like a certain "moody" superstar in another company, I tend to stay in my own room...at least until my number is called. In wrestling, you never know when a freak accident or injury, or unexplained opponent shows up, but it's those times when I know my opponent in advance that things get...VERY interesting.

Bang, I have to admit a few things. The more I learn about you, the more fascinated I get. A rough and tumble, take no prisoners pirate bitch who loves nothing more than torture? Not going to lie, you're kinda my type.

But that would be any other day. Tonight, what you are is someone whose face I need to bash. You possess something you don't understand. While you have all the knowhow and talent to BE UCA Champion, you have no idea why you are champion. You never fought where I fought. You never stood where I stood. UCA was a place where people lived and died with passion that rivals any monster or crazy person you would know. The only ones who survived that hell were the ones, like me, who studied their opponents to death, and then capitalized on their mistakes without mercy. Some of us are still here...and THAT is what I am fighting for.

You have no right to be a champion of a brand you know jack shit about!

I lived and died many different times back in those days. Some of my best friends and biggest rivals are still doing all they can to stake their claim in this new world, to prove that what we did all those years meant something. And I'm here to tell you they did. We of the UCA exist now in B8WL ready to carry wrestling to great heights, and yet, we are saddled with a champion who thinks only of profit and pain. Well, I say WHY NOT BOTH!?

If anyone was able to stand in the blood and muck and take you down, it would be me. And that is what I am going to do. Luck will be on my side. One way or another, I will make UCA's past glory its present when I do one of two things: choke the living hell out of you, or drop you with a Diamond Cutter, so you know what a Bang is supposed to feel like.

You have balls...for a girl. But I have so much more: the reason to win.
