Big Show I have nothing to lose

The scene opens somewhere outside of Orlando Florida. It’s a dark and stormy night and lightning is crashing in the background. The rain is pouring down from the skies and you can here the loud pattering of the rain hitting the ground below. As the lightning flashes again and lights up the sky we see Raven. He is sitting up against a sign that says ‘beware alligators in the canal’. He is wearing his black leather jacket, a white Ramones T-shirt, blue cut off jean shorts, and black combat boots. He has the FTR Extreme Title strapped around his waist. His clothes are completely soaking wet and his hair is matted to his face. He sits on the wet ground with his head bowed. He picks his head up and pulls the wet hair out of his face before he begins to speak.
Raven: “Are you really that stupid? What kind of question is that to ask me? What are we Big Show back in grade school? You see Show I don’t think you have the right or the intelligence to call me stupid. Everybody knows that Raven…is the most intelligent superstar in all of wrestling. Though I doubt my intelligence will come into play during are match. You see Big Slow they don’t call me the master of mind games for nothing. How long do you think…it’s going to take me to get inside that peanut sized brain of yours? I would say…that I’m already inside of it.”
“You have lost all respect for me Show…well isn’t that a shame. You see you don’t deserve respect from me, how could I respect somebody that hangs around with a fucking puppet? Your career was already a joke before this little escapade…but your took it too far. You have the potential to be a superstar…even Hulk Hogan saw that in you Paul. Yet you choose to be lazy and over pushed. Oh yeah and the Incredible Bulk that’s not helping you either. The JLAP is a joke…and if you want to commit career suicide that’s just fine and dandy, but don’t blame anybody but yourself when you go down that path. As for my title I don’t have any respect for it, it’s just a trophy I carry around to show that I am one of the best the FTR has to other. Yes a lot of greats in the FTR have held this belt and they used it as there stepping stone…just as I am doing to get to the world title. As for your stipulation you want to add to the match…well I can’t speak for Mortis and give you a shot at his belt. I will give you the stipulation because…I am no failure so Mortis you have nothing to worry about. Not like a fat slob like Paul Wight is anything to worry about.”
“I think I know what your problem is Paul…it’s the push you got when you were still green. I would say young and talent less but you still are talent less. You see you got the push I never did get…even though you didn’t deserve it. They wanted you to be the next big thing so to speak. Well what about me? What about Raven? I had to work my way up when everything was just handed to you. You never had to spend time in Barbed Wire City…you never had to wrestle in a fucking bingo hall to earn a paycheck. You might as well have been handed everything on a silver platter. Well now Paul it’s time for you to feel pain…to feel my pain. I know my childhood wasn’t your fault Big Show but somebody has to pay for my misfortunes. They say that I say that I have problems. That I walk away from responsibility. Yeah, I've walked away from a broken home. My broken dreams. My father didn't show much emotion. But at least if he had a bad day at work, I got to feel the brunt of it. I guess it's better to feel something, than nothing. They say I'm a little cruel. Maybe I inflict too much punishment on my opponents. But I guess sometimes, you got to be cruel to be kind. Quote the Raven, nevermore”
The scene ends with Raven standing up from his seated position. He slow extends his arms out in the crucifix position. He holds it there as the hard rain beats of his face and body. The wind blows his wet hair as the screen fades to black.
