The camera opens to see Marie Caedes sitting on the tiny balcony of her hotel room, enjoying the warm air. She's sitting on the concrete in jeans and a yellow button down shirt, looking like she has no other care in the world. But nothing could be further from the truth because she is thinking of Breakdown that is about to take place. She reaches for her water bottle, takes a drink. She sets it down before she finally lets everyone, especially a certain someone, whats on her mind.
Marie: Tsunami, this isn't the first time we’ve met, it's the first time we’ve met one on one. A few weeks ago we were in the same match as four other people fighting for a shot at a championship, and it seemed your father, manager, whatever the hell he wants to call himself this week, seemed very certain that you would be the one to win that shot. Mr. Howe said it was because of your size, because of your ability, and that none of us could hope to beat you. Well, what happened? Oh yeah….I have this sneaking feeling that you found out you aren't nearly as talented as maybe you, but definitely Martin seems to think you are.
See it's not size that always determines who will win. Am I giving up a great deal in size and weight? Yes, but you can still be taken down. I know that if I go for the top rope, you can catch me. I know I have no prayer of lifting you into moves that would require me to do so. But I have something you don’t. The ability to think for myself.
You come across as a mute, and as someone who is being told what to do. What's the matter Tsunami? You can’t talk….do you even know how to think for yourself? Because seriously, I don't think so. And that Tsunami is a weakness. Oh my! I found a weakness. I've watched you take on the others in SCW and yeah, you’re a big guy, but you’re a clumsy big guy. I’d love to see you do something but grab a person and throw them away like you might….well a piece of trash, but can you pull off an honest to goodness move?
Marie takes another drink from her pink water bottle, and thinks as she closes it. Then she keeps hold of it as she talks.
As for me, I’ve proven since my debut that I can do exactly what I said you can’t. Let’s start with that I can talk for myself. I dont have anyone ….well essentially putting words into my mouth. I know how to analyze my opponent, look for weaknesses and then use those weaknesses and tell you that I can exploit them better than your buddy Martin does. He tries to talk you up, make you sound so wonderful, but all you are is someone who will be stuck at the bottom for a while. Yes, one of those weaknesses is, as sI said, speaking for myself. So I’m telling you now that SCW isn't my first stop in this business. If you paid any attention to what a lot of the locker room is talking about and that's the fact I’ve already been wrestling for two years. Those two years gave me lots of experience taking on others, and I’ve taken on men your size, and still won.
I mentioned size, and what I know I’m facing. But unfortunately a lot of big men like you are clumsy, they lose quickness, they try to use their size to get their way. See I can run circles around you and while you’re trying to grab me, I’ll slip right through your fingers, So I’m talking just a circle or two, but go around you so fast that it makes you dizzy,which will make you even slower and give me the chance to attack.
Marie stands up, the water bottle in one hand, and she looks across the trees toward houses in the distance as the wind whips her hair around her face. She pushes back some of it, tucking it behind an ear.
Plus, and I admit this might be the hardest but all I have to do, and I can go to the top rope and nail you and drop you to the mat. And then it's a matter of pining you. But let's go a step further, humor me. What if I locked in a submission? Think of it, Tsunami, I have you in a submission that has your neck feeling like I’m about to break it and your big clumsy arms won’t be able to grab me. I wrap your legs up, and without your legs, you can’t get up.
There it is, I proved I can talk for myself, I can think for myself, that I don't need anyone going around making promises, hoping that they can be kept. Tsunami, I’ve heard people talking about how you are Martin Howe’s son, which if that is true, I do feel sorry for you. My mom, she was a wrestler, one with a pedigree that some of today’s stars wish they could have. But she’s not out here saying I’ll do this or that, I don't need her.
So Tsunami, I’ll see you in the ring. I’ll be the one taking on a man who, right now, is a mute, talentless gorilla who thinks being big is reason enough to win. Well I’m about to change that thinking and you’ll know it for sure when I defeat you.
Marie walks inside as the camera goes black.
