The scene opens in Shane Douglas's locker room at Tropicana field in Tampa, Florida. Shane is already dressed in his wrestling gear and he is wearing his old ECW yellow Franchise shirt. He has is cut short and his goatee is neatly trimed. He runs his hand over his beard before he begins to speak.
Shane Douglas: A lot of people told me I was stupid for challenging you tonight Austin. As I look back at my career I can't even remember facing you in a singles match. The people told me Austin is one tough son of a bitch, and not only can't you keep him down but there is no way you will pin him. Well those people can just kiss my ass, because tonight Austin I will prove to the world that I am and have always been the better man. For years we carried our respected oganizations on are shoulders. We were head and shoulders above the rest, and I give you this Austin you were the Franchise of the WWF. You weren't extreme enough for ECW, and you never had the hardcore style. Hell you even fucking jobed a match to the Sandman and Mikey Whipwreak. Your career was at a low when you were the Extreme Superstar. Then you finally got your big break, and big pay days. You were the only superstar people cared about, and I was never even thought about. You see Austin that punk motherfucker Vince would never give me the opportunity he gave you. That sick asshole wouldn't give me a day off when I had serious family problems. So I quit and came back to be a Franchise once again. Are paths should have crossed in ECW but like I you had a falling out with that piece of shit Paul Heymen. Well tonight no one can stop what is going to happen. For years you over shadowed me. Fuck Austin, if it wasn't for your charisma you would have been out of this goddamn business years ago. Your first claim to fame was only because Brian Pillman could carry you though a fucking tag team match. I think back to all the shots I should have had, but I was stuck in Philly. Then in the dying days of the WCW I was supposed to be the world champion. Dick Flair didn't like it but there wasn't a fucking thing he could do about it. I was finally going to carry one of the big two on my back as I did ECW. Then that cock sucker Vince decides to buy WCW too. Once again I get no world title. Well Austin you were his poster child and I am going to take all of that frustation Vince caused me out on you. I am a better wrestler than you and I want to fucking embarass and punish your ass on TV tonight. What! I said your fucking ass is going to get Franchised. Who came up with that stupid fucking What thing anyway Steve? Was it getting that bad for you because I have seen some bad gimmicks. Hell I was the Dean and a Dynamic Dude but this is just stupid. Did you say What to Debra as you slapped the taste out of mouth? Did you tell her don't trust anybody at your divorce hearing you women abusing piece of shit? Austin your nothing more than a Texas redneck low life motherfucker. You don't deserve the money, and you definatly don't deserve the fame. I won't let you steal my thunder here in the FTR. I will not be under you in the rankings, and I will eventually tower over the rest of the federation. You can't hold the Franchise down for long, nobody ever could. I play by my own set of rules, and I do things my way. Tonight Austin you are the first stepping stone on my climb to the top in the year 2003. Which will also be known as the year of the Franchise.
Douglas walks out of his dressing room and the screen fades to black.
