Who am I?
Wouldn’t you like to know?
Allow me to take a few minutes to introduce myself. I’m the guy who’s going to hoist AAW on his back and make it one of the premiere organizations that anyone wants to compete at. Bold statement? Sure, but that doesn’t make it any less true. I’ve seen some of the talent that has already put pen to paper, some prominent names within the industry but what’s about them is that they’ve all been beaten by me at some point or another. I won’t lie to you, I’m a little bummed that the World Title random draw elected not to draw my name because ultimately that is why I’m here. I guess a consolation prize isn’t that bad for the time being.
Everyone thinks they’re someone until they cross my path.
My reputation precedes me, and I’m looking forward to crushing the hopes and dreams of anyone who is put in my way. We all have our reasons for being here, and some of you will prop yourself up on your past accomplishments as a way to cater to your egos… but the truth of the matter is much like myself whatever I’ve accomplished doesn’t mean a damn thing right here, right now. The AAW is new ground, and I’m going to be your inaugural United States Champion.

“It’s done.”
The scene fades in as we see the masked face of Just Cause as he sits at a table flipping through some documents before he signs the final page. Just Cause slides the documents across the table. The camera pans back revealing Shaun Hart.
Shaun Hart- “We couldn’t be happier to have you on board All Action Wrestling. You come highly recommended, but why the mask?”
Just Cause- “Cause.”
Shaun Hart- “Ummmm okay.”
Just Cause- “How does this work? Will I be entered into the World Title scene?”
Shaun Hart- “It depends on the random draw. You have the same odds everyone else does for being selected. I’d hope that your name is called but if it isn’t we have a fallback for the United States Championship; a tournament if you will.”
Just Cause- “I didn’t come to AAW to play second fiddle.”
Shaun Hartt- “I get that, and if you are who I think you are it’s just a matter of time before you rise to the top.”
Just Cause- “For your sake, I hope it doesn’t take too long.”
*************************
The random draw didn’t go my way. So let’s talk about it. Regardless of what you may hear I’m poised to become the inaugural United States Championship, not to be confused with a Television Title that AAW doesn’t even have.
Karly Ward.
Who the hell are you? I mean outside of not knowing the difference between a Television Title or a United States Championship? Do you think this is where you can spout of nonsense and make a name for yourself? This isn’t the XWF, it isn’t the WGWF, it’s not Sin City Wrestling, or OCW (any version) where stupidity takes you to the pay window. Please do yourself a favor and don’t make blondes look dumber. It’s bad enough for the rest of them when people like you step in front of a camera. I couldn't care less about you or what you think you’re going to do versus what you’re GOING to do. Every match has a fall guy or gal, that’s your role here. You will be the one looking up at the lights wondering what truck just ran you over. You’re an embarrassment to this profession, and considering you can’t fix stupid I guess you will become the village idiot on the first show. Congratulations. All you had to do was open your mouth.
No wonder I don’t know who you are.
I only give people with some sort of intelligence my undivided attention, and you’ve clearly shown that isn’t you? I’m not a nice guy and I don’t dance around anyone’s feelings. If you’re a moron, you’re a moron… and you’ve taken the cake. This is like taking candy from a baby to slide into the next round when someone like you is opposing me. I wish I could give you some credit but the more I listen to you the less interested I am in you. Don’t worry sweetie, I’ll properly introduce you to my fist because I despise social media influencers. Speaking of that, I checked out your page and I got to ask how someone with 19 followers is much of an influencer. Doesn’t that require some kind of following? Listen, do yourself a favor and stop putting up a front and just acknowledge that you’re a talentless twat that has NO CLUE what the hell she is doing. Allow me to formally tell you that you’ve been thrown into the deep end of the pool and those fake floatation devices aren’t going to save you from drowning.
Run along and influence those 19 followers because Pro Wrestling isn’t your bag.

Two Weeks Ago:
The drawing for the AAW World Title match had just taken place and Just Cause hadn’t been selected. The first Impact Card had been released and upon reviewing it we found out that kicking things off on the first show is the only start that matters.
“Don’t get upset, just take advantage of where you’re at and show them why they made a mistake,”
A female voice is heard as the scene opens up where we see Just Cause lounging poolside in his mask. Just Cause can be seen holding the hand of what appears to be a female with red painted nails. We can’t see anything but her hand interlocked with Just Cause.
Just Cause- “The last thing I’m going to be is upset because I know it’s not a matter if but a matter of when I get my shot. In the meantime, I’ll take solace in the fact that the management in AAW at least knows when it comes to kicking off a new company on the first show is to have me gracing the ring to lay the foundation for what people can expect when they turn on the tube and see AAW. I wish I could say I know a lot about Karly, but she’s proven to be dumb as a brick… at least I get Ken Davison as well because he has some sort of reputation that is worth me trouncing.”
“That sounds a little harsh.”
Just Cause- “I wouldn’t consider it harsh over it being a harsh reality. I know a little about Ken, he was a prominent figure in the UGWC back when the UGWC managed to have more than four match cards filled with the same faces that refuse to take their talents to reputable federations because they’ll be exposed as frauds faster than Karly Ward as a social media influencer. Ken is good, but he isn’t great. He’s got flaws for days and to think this is a comeback of sorts for him he’s going to be looking to make a splash.”
Just then a cell phone on a small circular table starts to ring. Just Cause releases the hand of his lady friend and grabs his phone while looking at the Caller I.D.
Just Cause- “I have to take this, it’s my manager.
Just Cause excuses himself gets out of his lounge chair and walks away before answering the call and putting it on speaker.
Just Cause- “Hey what's up?”
“Hey (Bleep), I just wanted to touch bases and see if you saw that you have been booked in a Triple Threat with AAW…”
Just Cause- “Yeah, I saw it. I can’t say I like it but I understand that random draws will do that. As much as I would have loved to have been the first-ever AAW Heavyweight Champion I’ll take solace in knowing that I will open up the first show with this company in style. The first thing the AAW fanbase will see is what I can do in that ring, and knowing that the rest of the roster is going to have to follow it will be enough to fuel me to do what I do best.”
“Who are you and where is (Bleep)? Because this isn’t my client. My client would be bent because he’s missing out on a bigger opportunity. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not complaining at all but this just doesn’t seem to be like you.”
Just Cause scratches the back of his mask as he turns his back toward the camera and looks out across mountain ranges off in the distance.
Just Cause- “What is there to be mad about? It’s the first show. Naturally the powers that be just threw this shit together to get things going. It’s not like I won’t be wearing that Heavyweight Championship sooner rather than later but in the meantime let me show the AAW audience WHO I am versus explaining what I’ve done. Everyone is looking for a chance to make their mark, and this isn’t my first rodeo.”
“It’s just surprising to see this side of you is all.”
Just Cause- “It helps that I know how the business works. I’ve been a roster member, I’ve been an owner… Hell, there isn’t a lot I haven’t done or places I haven’t ruled with an iron fist. I’ll start where ever I need to… but you know it’s never about where you start… it’s where you finish. All I need to do is show up on Impact and win. It’s not like Karly is going to be much of a threat.”
“I wouldn’t underestimate anyone if I’m in your shoes.”
Just Cause- “I wouldn’t say I’m underesitmating her, I’m just saying she’s not worth a lot of my time or energy, but you know what I do find interesting.,,”
“What’s that?”
Just Cause- “It’s interesting that everyone else in this United States Tournament has a singles match but I’ve got a Triple Threat? I could call some schanigans on all of this and blame Shaun Hart for being a complete moron when it comes to holding a pencil. I tell you what though, I’m looking at it from a different perspective. While the other cats can have a cake walk with a singles match knocking off one person, I’ll knock off two. It’s going to be a beautful thing.”
“Are you sure you want to wear the mask? Why the secrecy?”
Just Cause- “We all wear masks, and if someone says they don’t I’ll call you a liar. My mask is for my protection. I wear it because I don’t want people to know my true identity. Hell, most of the cunt-cakes on this roster don’t deserve to share a ring with me as is. I’m almost embarrassed for half of this roster. We got dudes trying to cosplay at Indy Shows, we’ve got guys who had silver spoons shoved up their asses their entire lives, we’ve got blithering idiots that probably can’t find a roster spot anywhere else. Why should they know the caliber of competitor I am? Nah, I’ll give them what I want them to see and I’ll steamroll whoever is in front of me like I’ve done my entire career. When I come across someone on the roster worthy enough to know who I am is when I’ll take the mask off.”
“It just seems so needless.”
Just Cause- “Eh. It has it ups and downs… sure. Listen, I need to let you go. The wife is in town for a few nights and I need to spend some quality time. Let’s catch up after the show and then you tell me if the mask is needed.”
“You got it.”
*************************
Ken Davison.
Where you at dude? Here I was thinking I was procrastinating by waiting so long to get my shit together but here you are. Rumor has it this is your comeback of sorts, it’s just a shame that it’s going to come with me on the otherside of the ring. I’ll say this, it’s a safe bet that either you or me will be leaving this with the win. It’s not Steiner math, it’s just simple logic. I’ve established that Karly is an afterthought that’s been put here to take the L but it didn’t hit me until right now why this IS the only Triple Threat in this first stage of the United States Tournament. It’s to save you from taking a loss! What better way to protect you than put a martyr in the mix? Either way, I know more you than you might think. You’ve done somethings in your career but you haven’t been in the ring in how long? I’ve been getting reps in like they’re going out of style, I’m in tip top shape that has been making shots and if you’re deluded enough to think that you’re going to walk back into the industry and take a win in a match that involves me than you’re sadly mistaken. I don’t expect for you to roll over and play dead but it might be easier on you if you do. My focus is set. My intentions are known. I don’t have to do a lot of talking because I’m going to let my actions speak louder than any of my words could. You don’t need to believe me because I’m not here to convince you. I’m going to show up in Los Angeles and invade the Crypto.Com Arena and leave you in my rearview, and while you may or maynot take the lose there’s only one winner moving on. You’re looking at him.
As for the rest of you…
Not just in the United States Tournament but those also competing for Heavyweight Championship and especially the poor sap that walks away with it. Consider your days numbered. All of you are so desperate for attention, so needy for validation that you’ve been blinded by the lights; coincidentally, that’s what you’ll be looking up at when you cross my path. I don’t need to surround myself with talent, I don’t need to throw on chapstick and pucker up to the owners, and I don’t have to politic my way anywhere. I just have to show and leave you all in the dust. People have often asked me why I’m here.
Well,
Just.
Cause.
Just Cause I can.
Just Cause I am.
Just Cause.
So where does this leave all you? It leaves you on the corner of Fuck Around and Find Out.
I’ll be watching… and I’ll be waiting.
**************************
Present Day.
A private jet touched down at LAX on a private airstrip where a black limo was waiting. Stepping off the jet in some grey sweat pants with a white t-shirt, and a mask covering his face is Just Cause. He quickly makes his way to the limo and enters the back. Just Cause dials a number on his cell phone and places the phone to his ear.
Just Cause- “Hey, yeah I’ve made it one piece and am in route to the Hilton.”
Just Cause nods his head as he listens to what’s being said.
Just Cause- “I’m absolutely looking forward to it. We should probably sit down before the show and see if we can get this worked out. I know that most of these fools are worried about making a name for themselves to see anything coming. This will be masterful, and it will play exactly how we want it too.”
Just Cause listens and then answers.
Just Cause- “Let me get checked in and get situated and we can make it happen. I’ll send you the information.”
Just Cause hangs up the phone as the scene fades.
Wouldn’t you like to know?
