You’s see, people get real confused about what a battle royal is.

They think it’s chaos. They think it’s luck. A buncha bodies flyin’, everybody swingin’, everybody screamin’.

Nah.

To me?

This ain’t chaos.

This is collections.

Every single one of you’s boys standin’ in that ring at Wrestle Heroes? You’s been livin’ on borrowed time. Borrowed respect. Borrowed opportunity. You’s made your names, you’s cashed your checks, you’s took up space in my business… and nobody ever settled the tab.

See, where I come from, when somebody owes you’s somethin’, you’s don’t argue about it. You’s don’t negotiate it. You’s don’t pretend it’s not real.

You’s collect.

Some of you’s owe me for jumpin’ the line.

Some of you’s owe me for talkin’ outta turn.

Some of you’s owe me for breathin’ real comfortable while my name was still bein’ whispered instead of spoken.

And that’s fine.

I’m patient.

A battle royal’s a beautiful thing when you’s look at it the right way. Pins. Submissions. Gravity and consequence. Just one by one, guys realizin’ that all those friends they thought they had? All those alliances? They don’t mean nothin’ when it’s time to put on those concrete shoes.

I’m gonna take you’s all on a little trip.

One by one, I’m walkin’ you’s to the edge.

Whether that’s Dolly Daydream thinkin’ she’s got freedom in my ring, or Edward Newton thinkin’ intellect buys freedom from having to pay up.

You’s can be a fuckin’ drowned pirate – all that means is you’s used to the feeling of cold water hittin’ ya lungs.

And when I put my hands on you’s? That’s the moment it hits you. That cold feelin’ in your stomach. That realization that you’s shoulda paid up when you’s had the chance.

Some of you’s are gonna fight me. Good. That just means you’re scared.

Some of you’s are gonna try and sneak me from behind. That’s fine too. I respect initiative. I just don’t forgive it.

Because here’s the thing—you’s can hide in a crowd, but you’s can’t hide from me. I don’t rush. I don’t panic. I let the ring clear itself out. I let you’s boys do my work for me. And when it’s just me and what’s left?

That’s when the debt comes due.

I ain’t in this for the spotlight.

I ain’t in this for applause.

I’m in this because this business runs on power… and power don’t come free.

At Wrestle Heroes, every one of you’s is gonna learn the same lesson my way. You’s don’t jump the boss. You’s don’t dodge the bill. And when Blackhand Moretti comes to collect?

You’s don’t argue.

You’s pay up…

Or you’s sleep wit’ the fishes.
