OOC Note: Ok so I totally thought this deadline was next week, and had to throw this together to get something up. I completely apologize to Ash, Wasley, and Olek for not preparing better. It is promo only, and I hope it reads well.

------------------------------

The world witnessed history at the War of the Roses, when Jake Starr stunned the masses, and became the sixth member of the coveted Supreme Champions club. It was a moment that, any time it happens, is a coveted moment in time. It was also a moment where a dream came to a true realization for Jake, and everything finally seemed to click.

At that very moment, Jake's world changed. Everything he had worked for in his life had come to completion, and now, he's officially on a quest to simply "do more" in life. It's one of the first times in his life where he didn't quite know what to do next. For five years he has been striving for one goal, and now that he has it, he's at a loss of where to go next.

Where does he turn his attention next?

In a literal sense, Jake knows Breakdown is "next," but his career has always been a continual quest for a goal. Now, that goal is kind of a shot and he has to turn his attention to something. Whatever that is, he will have to figure out, but for now, Breakdown will have to do.

Going into Breakdown, Jake will have his hands full with a tough challenge of SCW cousins, Thomas and Ryan Watson. Ryan is coming off of the loss to Jake at War of the Roses, and everyone knows that he will be wanting to get revenge on Jake for using him as his patsy for his Supreme Championship. Thomas is fresh off of his Adrenaline Championship victory, and looking to be like Jake, and continue the wave of momentum going forward. Unfortunately for Jake, he doesn't know what is going to happen in the match. It was initially announced that Jake will be teaming with James Evans, which would have marked a very formidable teaming moment for Jake. Unfortunately, those plans have changed, and Jake is now forced to go into the match wondering who will be watching his back.

As the scene fades in, Jake stands in front of a green screen, which has a dark background CGI'ed onto it. As Jake receives the signal from the camera man, Jake begins to speak openly about all of the events that have happened over the past couple weeks, and how his life has completely changed since the War of the Roses.


Jake Starr: My entire life, I have done nothing but continually strive to be the best. Time and time again, I have looked at the landscape of the professional wrestling business, and tried to find that "one thing" that I haven't done, and pushed myself to complete it. Each moment, each milestone, each EVERYTHING, was for a reason. Nothing was meaningless. Every time, I was out to try and do something that people would REMEMBER, and NEVER FORGET. Each time I picked something, I was quickly shown that whatever that thing was, whatever I thought would put me down as a legend, was proven to just be a fleeting moment in life.

Nothing was permanent.

Each time I went out there, and each time I won a World Championship, I thought it was the time where I could win ONE BELT and change everything about how everyone thinks. But it was not that easy. World Championships meant something then, and then only.

Then things changed at War of the Roses.

Everything I had come to believe was proven wrong.

It wasn't a World Championship that changed my life... It was a United States Championship!

In life, you're given only a few opportunities to truly go out and do something that will change how you are perceived. Sometimes, people use that moment to attack. Sometimes people use that to turn on one another. Sometimes people simply seize a dream, and take advantage of something that they know is their LAST CHANCE. I did that. I seized my last chance. I went out there and I fought a guy who had EVERY INTENTION IN THE WORLD of stopping me from having my dream come true. I faced a guy who pushed me harder than I have ever been pushed, and it wasn't because of his skills. Don't get me wrong, he's one of the most talented "young superstars" in the business. He is someone who I have a lot of respect for, but the thing is, he pushed me mentally. He pushed me in a way that I wasn't ready for, and quite frankly, I wondered if I would be able to overcome.

Jake takes a deep breath, and swallows some saliva that has pooled in his mouth.

Ryan Watson made me doubt. He made me doubt whether or not I could rise to the challenge. He made me question whether or not I could live my dream, and you know, that doubt, that feeling of questioning my own abilities, that desperation, all of it, it all was EXACTLY WHAT I NEEDED! See, in SCW, I have done nothing but think that it was the sheer NUMBER of championships that would make me memorable. Since coming in, I always saw guys like Jason Zero, who was the 40000000 time World Champion, and thought that he was the pinnacle of what was "Supreme" about SCW. When I realized I was wrong, I was in a position where I had ONE SHOT... ONE FUCKING SHOT... To go out there and live my dream. With the doubt in my mind, I knew that no matter how much I questioned myself, no matter what questions Ryan put in my head, I had to find a way to get over it because my dream hinged on it.

Jake raises his voice.

MY DREAM WAS CENTERED ON RYAN WATSON!

So I did what a true LEGEND does. I embraced the doubt. I went in there and I knew that it was all or nothing. I went in there, and I loved each and every minute of that match because I knew that if I won, it would mean that all of that doubt, all of that question, all of that EVERYTHING, had pushed me to a level of greatness that I had never faced before. It would have made me become greater than I ever fathomed being, It would have meant that my dream would have become a reality, and the moment that I have strived for my entire wrestling life would finally be here.

It was a match that defined my career, and it wasn't about an amount of championships. It wasn't about how much or how many, it was about what it signified. It signified my place in HISTORY! I joined the ranks of the true LEGENDS in this industry, and I did so in a way only deserving of a Supreme Champion. I went out there, and I was pushed to the brink of disaster, and from that brink, from that moment when everyone thought that Watson wouldn't let me have that moment where I would do it, I made sure he stayed down, and he stayed down long enough for me to become the SIXTH Supreme Champion in SCW history. It is a championship that isn't tangible. It isn't one that someone can come out and challenge me for. It is something that is mine, and mine for LIFE!

It is a dream that I always thought was just something that would live inside my brain, but never in my reality. Now, it's here. Now, it's "in my hands." It is something that I wish I could say has "sunk in," but the truth is, it hasn't. I know it's real. I know that I have done something that, in roughly an eleven year history, only five others have done, but even with that knowledge, I don't fully comprehend what has happened. I don't fully understand that I am on that list of five other LEGENDS in this business. It is something I have always wanted and always yearned for, and now it's here. There is no more chase for my dream. There is no more "quest" for this goal for legendary status. There is no wait for Ryan Watson to lose the United States Championship, so I can try again...

Jake lifts his arm up. His hand has been obstructed by the cropped shot, and as he does so the United States Championship comes up firmly grasped in his hand. As it gets near his face, his head slowly turns, and he gazes at his newly acquired championship.

... And that's because Jake Starr is the NEW UNITED STATES CHAMPION! That's something I, honestly, had my doubts that I would get to say, but you know, I get to say it, and dammit, it feels good! It feels good to be back on top of the heap again. It feels good to be back in the winner's circle. It feels good to be a wrestler again. For the entire year of 2013, I thought I knew how to get myself back to this place. I thought I knew what it would take to make myself feel this good again, but each time I tried something different, I slipped and I fell again. This match... This win... This feeling... This CHAMPIONSHIP... It all represents the new beginning I have been looking for. It truly represents the dawning of a new era for me because for the past five years, I've done nothing but struggle to try and find my place in history, and I've done nothing but try for championship after championship. I was always trying for SOMETHING, and now, I've had it all. My dreams are reality, and this year means it'll continue to be a string of firsts for me.

No more struggling...

No more clamoring for that one thing that would "put me over the top..."

No more "trying" to find that next "high" that will cement my legacy...

I get to enjoy my life for the first time in six years. I get to have fun. I get to have this ride, and love every minute of it. I get to enjoy being the United States Champion, and whatever else happens on that road, or subsequent roads will be icing. I plan on being a United States Champion that is remembered for his accomplishments. I don't plan on being some one-off champion. I don't plan on having a reign that people don't consider one of the greatest of all time. I plan on making it one that people talk about for years to come. I plan on making it a moment in SCW history where people truly sit back and wonder what the "most important" belt in the business was.

But I know there are a lot of people out there are wondering if I was going to be true to my word. People are wondering when Jake Starr's attention shifts back to the World Championship. I will say I'm not going to be stupid and ignore this coveted championship that I have right now. I am not going to try and focus on multiple titles because I think I need a World Championship run. I also won't lie... We all know Jake Starr's name needs to be at the forefront of the Rise to Greatness marquee. Am I going to pursue the World Championship directly? No... But will I put my name in the hat for Taking Hold of the Flame?

Damn right!

If it's meant to be this year, that's where it'll come from. If it's not... I'll step up and be there next year. I'm not out for greed this time. I am out for fun. I am out to simply live the dream. I believe in the dream, and now, I'm living it. This belt, this proves that I have turned a corner. This belt is my chance to make this year special, more than just in January, but in February, March, April, and all of the way until 2015!

Jake tosses the United States Championship over his shoulder, and

Unfortunately, before I can do all of that, I have to focus on 2014. I have to focus on each and every match that is thrown in my path. I have to make sure that everyone who crosses me falls, one by one. Nobody gets a pass. I can't let ANY challenge pass me by. I have no excuses anymore. After what happened at War of the Roses, I can't allow some challenge to best me because I've already faced the toughest challenge one can face. I have already been put through a wringer, and been pushed to my limits. More importantly, my limits, as I know them, can always be pushed further. I've seen that I can step up and do things I never thought.

At Breakdown... It won't be any different.

See, the world heard, just like I did, that I would be in a match with James Evans watching my back, against the man I defeated, Ryan Watson along with his cousin, Thomas. Both teams have a very similar mentality. On the side of the Watsons, you have one guy who lost a championship at War of the Roses, and a guy who became at champion at the same pay-per view. On our side, you have me, Jake Starr, the man who is now a SUPREME CHAMPION...

Jake pauses, and smirks.

... Heh... That's kind of cool, to be able to say that!

Anyway!

You have myself, who is the new United States Champion, and the one who bested Ryan Watson, and then you have...

Jake pauses, and holds his right hand to his ear, as if he's a newscaster being told something from the production booth. Jake looks just off to the side of the camera.

What?

Really?

No!

You're kidding?!

He did what?

How tragic!

Ok...

Jake turns back toward the camera, and a "Breaking News" crawler appears at the bottom of the screen. Jake's voice immediately goes from "wrestler" to that of a cheesy impersonation of a newscaster.

Ladies and gentlemen we have some BREAKING NEWS, in the world of Supreme Championship Wrestling. It seems that Jake Starr no longer has a known partner for Breakdown. It seems James Evans has been abducted by aliens, and flown to an undisclosed planet for penile hole testing. It seems James has been replaced at Breakdown with "Mystery Partner," who hails from Parts Unknown. We reached out to Jake Starr's representatives for comment, but have not received a response.

We will be monitoring this story for updates, and will keep everyone posted on further developments.

In other news, it is snowing like a motherfucker in the Midwest!

For KPOO-TV, I am Jake Starr!

The crawl at the bottom disappears, and Jake's voice goes back to normal.

Well... That is some crazy news right there. I mean... SNOW! And LOTS of it!

Jake gets someone talking in his ear again, and shifts topics.

Oh yeah... The snow thing is kind of being covered by a lot of networks right now. Anyway, so apparently news has broken that I am going into this match blind. I am flying solo, or at least, flying blind. I have someone who is supposedly going to be joining me inside that ring, and this someone is someone who I am supposed to entrust to watch my back. Whoever this person is, I have to believe is going to have my best interests in mind, and with the countless amount of friends I have made in SCW, over my career...

Jake cocks an eyebrow.

... Yeah it's hard to believe that is going to happen reliably. With Evans, I knew what I was getting into. I knew what he would bring to the party. He and I have gone rounds with one another, and truthfully, I knew that I would be able to rely on him to come in and fight. Now, I don't have that comfort. Now I am forced to hope for some mystery person to come in and do what I had hoped to rely on Evans for. Now I have to trust that my safety is in the hands of someone who I don't even know.

Well... That sucks!

The fact is, I am walking into this match, now, assuming that nobody will be there. I am walking in, assuming that whomever this person is, will simply be a figment of my imagination, and I'm in this fight by myself. I am going to be walking to the ring, all with the goal of having to beat up one guy who, let's be honest, probably hates me as much as he does a prostate exam, and his cousin, who is the Adrenaline Champion, and quite a bad ass one, at that. I get to go and fight two guys who will, likely, beat the holy-living shit out of me.

Three cheers for me, eh?

I'm a lucky fucking devil!

I mean, let's just be real, here... Two on one aren't great odds. The odds of me being able to take on these two alone, isn't good. I'd even venture to say it's borderline impossible. The numbers rarely, if ever, lie, and that leads me to believe one thing...

Jake puts his hands together in prayer, and looks up toward the heavens.

Oh please, Lord, give me someone I can rely on! I don't want to die!

Jake can't hold a straight face, and looks back at the camera, lowering his hands.

I couldn't resist!

So, while the odds may definitely NOT be in my favor, I can say this. The Watsons are going to bring a fight, and I don't know if I'm in this alone, or with help. Having said that, Ryan knows this, and should be sure to relay it on to Thomas... Jake Starr brings a fight, no matter who, what, or how many. I don't care if I have to go out there, and beat the SHIT out of everyone with a chair, which let's be honest I do do quite well, I will do it. I will make sure the two Watsons understand that, while they may be able to beat me down, while they may be able to score a victory over me, in the end, they'll leave more worse for the wear.

Ask Christy Matthews what happens, when Jake Starr is backed into a corner...

Ask Ryan Watson, himself, what happens when Jake Starr is backed into a corner...

Both of them put me in a position where I had everything to lose, and nothing to gain. Sure, with Christy she was able to get the win, but ask her how she won. Ask her who left that ring walking. With Watson, hell, we covered that. So when I get told the odds are against me, and I get no credit whatsoever, I come out swinging. I come out with the goal to win, or to make sure that when I exit that ring, I'm the last one laughing.

That's how Breakdown will fare.

I don't care how much they think they will be able to keep me at bay, I will do everything I can to make sure they do NOT forget me. If I have someone behind me who will truly watch my back, then who knows, maybe the world will be shocked at what Jake Starr can pull off.

One way or another, I am walking out of Breakdown with my head held high. I am walking out with the belief that I busted my ASS in order to do the best that I could. I am walking out PROUD to be the United States Champion, and NOT feeling that after one big victory I have sunk back into a funk of complacency. This dream isn't over. This roller coaster isn't over.

Believe in the dream!

With those final words, Jake looks deeply into the camera, and simply stares as the camera slowly goes to black. His words openly show that he knows that his mind is in a bit of disarray, even after winning. The lack of "direction" for Jake may be a bad thing for some, but for Jake, he just sees it as a challenge. He has to utilize his momentum to figure out what is truly "next" for him. As he has always stated, he's never done striving to get better and do more with his career.

With Jake's mystery partner, well, a mystery, there are numerous questions surrounding Breakdown. Will the partner be someone who helps put Jake over the top? Will it be someone who holds Jake back, from being able to fight at the highest level? In mere hours, we will have the answers we need, in order to solve the mysteries that are surrounding the next event in the history of Supreme Championship Wrestling.

[ooc] - And here's mine. Struggled with motivation over the last few days so it's not my best but I'm quite happy with how the scene turned out at least. As for content, it's a continuation of the storyline that played out at the ppv between Watson and Kennedy, following up directly from the Kennedy rp posted for the tag title match. Ian, always fun buddy! Good luck and again, grats on the win from WOTR and the Supreme Champion status; welcome to the club squire! And to whoever else is against us, best of luck to you too. Enjoy!
