Welcome...(Wrath)

We open at a familiar location. At one time, this location stood proudly as a beautiful Catholic church...however time has taken its toll, and what was once a house of God is now a den of evil.
The paint on the church's once white walls is cracking and peeling. Pews are overturned. Some of the windows have been broken. And in the place where, many years ago, a sacred holy cross hung...an Undertaker symbol is hanging.
The Undertaker's throne is in front of the symbol, with two flaming torches on both sides. These torches provide us with just enough light to see the large figure of The Undertaker sitting on the throne.
Undertaker: "The forces of darkness can never be questioned. There is no explanation for them. They simple are. They are what they are. Just as I am who I am...
"However, to lay false claim to these forces is a sin that can never be forgiven. To command the powers of darkness is a feat that few can ever accomplish. Many, many have lost their souls in trying to do so.
"However, Wrath, I have commanded these powers for a very long time now, and while many have tried....no one has ever been able to match me...or to take control away from me. The fact the matter is, Wrath, the darkness is my personal domain. I have shaped it in my own image. The evil that flows through my veins is not of Satan, or any other type of idol you try to place on it. The evil that flows through my veins is of myself.....for I am the epitome of all evil...the personification of hatred....
"And at Rampage, I shall be your doom.
"You follow a man that left the FTR in humiliation three years ago. He left the FTR because he attempted to overthrow me, and found himself to be incapable of doing so. The title of Lord of Darkness is a title that I take very seriously, and a title that I shall never relinquish. My reign is an eternal one, Wrath....and you won't fight eternity....
"You will be consumed by it.
"You're nothing more than a simple fool hired by a frightened man as a last resort. Don't you understand that, Wrath? Vader is a desperate man who feels that he has nothing to lose. He is making one last effort at defeating me...and like before, he shall fail. This time, however, there will be no return.
"At Rampage, I will cast you into a pit of oblivion from which you will never return. Your ridiculous claims are nothing to me, Wrath. I've heard them all before, from men far greater than you will ever be.
"I can't tell you that your fate is a pitiful one, because it is not. You aren't a warrior...you aren't a brave challenger. You're...nothing to me. Nothing more than another disappointment from the world of wrestling. Nothing more but potential that was never realized.
"You aren't a Sting. You aren't a Goldberg. You aren't a Rhino. You aren't an Ernest Miller. You aren't a Kurt Angle. You're not even a Jeff Jarrett....you're just a pathetic fool who is walking headfirst into the fires of Hell.
"Rest in peace, young one....for your destiny awaits."
