Meeting an old Friend:
The scene opens at the WGWF Corporate Offices in Los Angeles, California as Chris Page is shown strolling through the front lobby dressed in a nice three piece suit that’s been custom made looking as only he can look. The suit is black with charcoal pin strips that are paired with a pair of black dress shoes and a grey button up shirt with a black tie. He’s greeted by several corporate office employee’s that he has worked on and off with for years and they’re all smiles. Chris signs in at the front desk.
SECRETARY- “It’s good to see you back Mr. Page.”
As Chris finishes signing his name he glances at the secretary at the front desk as he states.
CHRIS PAGE- “I’m not back… I’m just here to see an old friend.”
Chris winks at her as he places the pen on the sign in sheet and is handed a visitor badge which he clips on to the lapel of his sport coat.
SECRETARY- “I’m assuming you know where you’re going?”
She asks which draws a blank stare from Chris Page who politely retorts.
CHRIS PAGE- “I think I got it.”
Chris turns and walks across the white tile floor towards the elevators. The doors to an elevator open up right upon his arrival as Chris steps on to the elevator before hitting the button marked “8”. The ride up is seemingly uneventful as a slow paced elevator music is lightly playing. He arrives on the eighth floor and the doors open up where he steps off the elevator and into a large lobby where another secretary is sitting across from the elevator with a smile on her face as Chris approaches.
SECRETARY- “Welcome back Mr. Page!”
She exclaims as Chris simply shakes his head as he responds.
CHRIS PAGE- “I’m not back...”
His response catches her off guard as she is seemingly confused as Chris reaches her desk.
CHRIS PAGE- “I’m actually here to see Adam; is he in?”
She looks over the schedule for the day before picking up her phone where she buzzes into Adam’s office. Several seconds pass before we hear her say.
SECRETARY- “Mr. Barker, Mr. Page is here to see you.”
Clearly there’s a small conversation before Adam’s secretary then states.
SECRETARY- “Absolutely.”
She hangs up the phone before looking up at Chris.
SECRETARY- “Head right on in.”
There’s a head nod from Chris as he turns and starts to walk across the floor towards a large set of double doors. Upon his arrival he opens the doors and walks into Adam’s office where he’s greeted by Adam Barker who stands in the center of the room.
ADAM BARKER- “Chris Fucking Page!”
There’s a laugh under Chris’s breath as he walks into the office and closes the doors behind him. We fade into Adam’s office where he and Page exchange an embrace in the center of the floor. Adam motions for Chris to have a seat on his black leather couch while Adam takes a seat in the black leather chair that sits next to the couch.
CHRIS PAGE- “Thanks for seeing me on extremely short notice.”
ADAM BARKER- “Stop playing with me… You and I are like brothers, we’re family. I’ll see you anytime you’re here regardless of what I’ve got going on.”
Chris nods his head in approval before stating.
CHRIS PAGE- “I appreciate that; truly I do.”
There’s a deep breath from Chris as he continues.
CHRIS PAGE- “Let me cut straight to the chase as we’ve both got a lot going on.”
Adam responds.
ADAM BARKER- “Shoot.”
CHRIS PAGE- “As you know we’re getting ready to head into Caged In…”
Adam interjects with sheer enthusiasm.
ADAM BARKER- “Bro I know! I’m super excited to see you and MDK one more time inside Hell in a Cell!”
There’s some light laughter from Chris Page as Adam continues.
ADAM BARKER- “You two have always stolen the show anytime you’ve been booked opposite each other. Hell, I remember way back in the day when I put you two opposite each other it was nothing short of pure freakin’ gold! You talk about two guys that built this federation with that hellacious feud back in 07’.”
Adam casually states.
CHRIS PAGE- “I know, I know… You were just as instrumental as we were with that program coming together the way it came together and I have to admit I’m pretty excited about this upcoming Clash of the Titans as well; which brings me to the reason I’ve came to see you personally.”
Chris takes a moment to gather his thoughts before continuing.
CHRIS PAGE- “The history between MDK and I will always stand the test of time; he and I are two staples of this organization that you started and collectively we’ve done some really great things for the federation and I don’t expect Caged In to be any different, which is why I feel like it’s only fitting that we reunite the band.”
Adam’s eyes grow rather large as he states.
ADAM BARKER- “Are you asking me what I think you’re asking.”
CHRIS PAGE- “I have no doubts with the recent events between MDK and myself that he is going to have some sort of plan, an ace up his sleeve if you will. I need to have someone on deck and in my corner that will have my back… And let’s face it; nobody has had my back in the past like you have. Collectively we ran rough shot over the WGWF dating all the way back to faction known simply as Genesis.”
Adam starts to shake his head forward as he agrees.
CHRIS PAGE- “Right now MDK has that cunt Alyce on the tip of his dick and there’s a wild rumor that more soldiers are on the way; you’re going to be detrimental, Adam. I need you in my corner for this. I need your eyes in the back of my head because the last thing that I want to see happen is my eighth reign as WGWF World Heavyweight Champion end up a tainted fucking mess. I’ve already proved that I can beat the little bastard not once… But twice… So with the playing field leveled there’s no doubt that I will fulfill my goal.”
Chris gathers his thoughts before he continues.
CHRIS PAGE- “I understand if you’re not interested but considering the nostalgia that’s surrounding this Caged In rematch that’s ten years in the making I’d figured I would ask.”
Adam takes a moment to think this through as he rubs under his chin before lowering his hand as he says.
ADAM BARKER- “I’ve got goosebumps right here, right now. This is going to be a major event and if Chris Page has flown to Los Angeles to ask me to be in his corner than my answer now is the same it’s been ANY time you’ve wanted me in your corner… You damn right! I’m there!”
Chris interjects.
CHRIS PAGE- “Fucking great!”
ADAM BARKER- “I’ve always had your back and I always will. If it wasn’t for your contributions to the WGWF this federation would have been closed years ago. You took it when nobody else would and continued to showcase my vision only you took it to the next level. I’ll tell you this here and now… I never forgot just how much blood, sweat and tears you poured into this place. It will be my honor.”
Adam reaches out with his hand as he and Chris shake hands to seal the proverbial deal.
CHRIS PAGE- “The original dream team reuniting one more time.”
Adam smirks as he states.
ADAM BARKER- “It has a really good ring to it.”
The two release hands as we see Adam sit back in his chair and cross his right leg over his left knee.
ADAM BARKER- “Forgive me for prying if I am; how are you holding up? It’s been a minute since we’ve had a chance to sit down and talk. I know that you signed the divorce papers.”
There’s a deep sigh from Chris as he leans back against the back rest of the couch before responding.
CHRIS PAGE- “I’m coping.”
He states.
CHRIS PAGE- “It’s not easy to change everything about one section of your life but I’m doing the best I can. What’s done is done and there’s nothing that I can do about it; unfortunately. Jules made her mind up and I don’t have a choice but to accept it and move on. Truth be told I’ve kind of immersed myself around becoming the only eight time World Heavyweight Champion in WGWF history and making this upcoming affair with MDK something that will be remembered for years to come.”
Chris briefly pauses before he continues.
CHRIS PAGE- “I guess I’ve been too busy dealing with Caged In to really go through all the emotions to move on.”
Adam breaks his silence.
ADAM BARKER- “You know that’s not healthy, right? You need to take time for yourself at some point to truly deal with this situation. You can’t just pretend that this didn’t happen.”
Chris interjects.
CHRIS PAGE- “Nobody is pretending this didn’t happen, Adam. I am living it every single day. I just choose to handle things differently.”
Chris seriously states.
CHRIS PAGE- “And right now my mind isn’t on Julie, it’s not on Andy, it’s on MDK and what I’m going to do to him once I am locked inside Hell in a Cell with him. What I need from you is your support and your attention to detail come the event itself.”
Chris defensively states.
ADAM BARKER- “I didn’t mean to push any buttons…”
Chris interjects once again.
CHRIS PAGE- “Oh you didn’t push any buttons at all… I’m just trying to maintain my focus and right now the focus is beating MDK within an inch of his life inside that Cell.”
Chris gets up off the couch and stands up as he looks down at Adam.
CHRIS PAGE- “See you at Caged in.”
Our scene fades to black.
Words from the Stoned One:
Caged In is finally upon us and it will be the night in which MDK finally understands that in a world that consists of Chris Page and MDK that he will always be inferior. Let us speak a little bit about history and legacy within the WGWF; it was nearly ten years ago at this very event that the wrestling world stood still as a Cell lowered down from the rafters and surrounded you and I with the WGWF World Heavyweight Championship hanging in the balance. For sixty straight minutes you and I threw caution to the wind, you and I threw everything we had at each other in what was billed as a Hell in a Cell Iron Man Match, the first and the last in this company’s history. We beat the dog shit out of each other, don’t you remember? Of course you do because this one night was the single biggest night in your WGWF career. You and I were engulfed in what ended up being not only the Feud of the Year but Match of the Year as well; but more importantly it was the night in which my record breaking World Title run would come to an end.
Even if you couldn’t get the job done in the allotted time of Sixty Minutes.
Sure you got your cup of coffee with the title on that night but you sure as shit didn’t do it in sixty minutes. That one loss is the loss that stings the most throughout my entire career and now ten years later not only do I have the chance too but WILL avenge it. I could sense the fear, the desperation exuding from your pours the mere moment I put John Cable down and EARNED the right to stand across from you come Caged In… Yet this time the roles are reversed, this time it’s you that enters with the WGWF World Title and it’s I that enters as your challenger. You pride yourself on being on the cocky side and as a man that is above everyone else yet I’m the only guy that makes you question not only yourself but your abilities inside that squared circle. You have every right to be fearful of what is GOING to happen when you and I grace that grand stage under the bright lights with a Cell surrounding us once again; especially when you have to constantly be reminded that I am the only man to lift a World Title from your waist within the WGWF.
For months we sat back and watching you and Tristan play out on television and for months you loved to use the word “transitional”; isn’t it ironic that the very word you loved to throw around is the very fucking word that you are going to once again become? You know, it’s just the role you’re destined to play when you’re playing the game opposite me and YOU know it. Take a good look at what’s transpired over the last three episodes of Monday Night Brawl; two of those three your shoulders where pinned to that mat two of three times by MY hands. I know that’s a bitter pill for you to have to swallow so you might as well get used to the taste of defeat by my hands because the defeat that actually matters comes full circle come Caged In; and come Caged In you’re going to realize beyond any shadow of a doubt that you’ve picked the wrong dude to fuck with. Instead of playing your little games with Andy you should have been playing your games with me. Now, we all know how stupid you looked when you tried to use Andy against me, when you tried to get inside my head as well as his own by telling him that I am not there for him, that I don’t care about him blah, blah, blah… Andy isn’t the story here, MDK. I am. Andy isn’t involved in this equation, MDK. I am. Andy has absolutely nothing to do with Caged In and your subsequent reign as yet another transitional Champion, MDK. I do. So please, do yourself a favor and hit the fucking reset button and try to figure out the elaborate puzzle that Chris Page has become to you because at this point you’re nothing but a mere footnote on my eighth reign as WGWF World Heavyweight Champion.
Nobody… And I mean NOBODY is looking forward to this as much as I am.
Nobody… And I mean NOBODY is anticipating making that long walk to the ring, looking up at the rafters as Hell in a Cell slowly starts lowering from the rafters until it completely surrounds the two of us, and when that bell sounds it’s just me and you kid… And if recent history has a way of repeating itself I won’t have to hide behind a mask, I won’t have to use El Nacho to embarrass you because once I beat you a third straight time you’ll be an embarrassment all unto yourself. You’ve got absolutely nothing you can throw at me, you’ve got nothing that you can so or do that will hold any weight or stick in any form or fashion. You’re nothing more than an overrated sack of shit that I’ve always knows you to be. There was a time when I once ran you out of this federation over the World Title and for years I kicked myself in the ass over it to the degree that I sought you out and bent over backwards to rebuild the bridge of communication and professional respect; but here over the last year or so since you’ve come back to this federation I’ve done nothing but absolutely regret it. Now is my time to change that and by lifting the only thing that remotely makes you relevant from your shoulders will be my saving grace and will be my ultimate revenge upon you.
Let’s get something perfectly straight; I don’t need to title.
I WANT THE TITLE.
While you NEED the title or else you’re reduced too what you’ve always been… A second rate Chris Page wanna be.
I told the world last week that I was going to change the game and that’s exactly what I’ve done. I’ve established that not only can I out wrestle you but that I can beat you whenever and where ever I choose too while you are content with giving a beating that can’t keep me down for two fucking weeks. We are on the cusp of what will be a monumental showdown, a little sliver of nostalgia for the die-hard fans that have been down since day one for this company and while the roles are reversed doesn’t change the facts that when you compare yourself to Chris Page you’re always going to be playing second fiddle, and I’ll be reminding you that in just a few short days come Caged In because you and I both know that as of this moment I am so far inside your head you can’t keep anything straight. I’ve been focused on you since the moment I became the Number One contender and I’ll remain focused on you until that closing bell tolls and they announce me as the eight times WGWF World Heavyweight Champion.
… Then what happens to you “kingdom”?
What happens to this façade that you and Alyce have tried to build up surrounded by the so called dominance you claim to have established when you’re left holding nothing but an empty bag and no title belt? I’ll tell you, it comes crumbling down and with another failed WGWF World Title defense under your belt you’ll have no choice but to realize everything Tristan Slater has said about you all along is nothing short of the truth. You’re the one that’s transitional and it eats you up inside. You know that you MUST win here in order to silence even your loudest critic but you also know that putting me down is easier said than done. Yeah, you’ve done it in the past… But this isn’t the past now is it? This is the present and from what I can tell living in the present revolves around how I have your number and just how far I am willing to go to burn your kingdom to the fucking ground. I dare you, hell I double dare you to prove me wrong… If you can.
Consider Caged In my gift to you.
Consider the gift of being transitional a badge of honor that guys like you and Paul Frost can wear on your sleeves with pride because there are not many of you out there but at least you’re in exclusive company.
I’m completely confident walking into this because I know how the game is played.
MDK will always have eyes in the back of his head in the form of Alyce Starchylde and her minions of followers and I won’t sit here and say that I’m not half expecting her to show her face the moment it looks like MDK is about to suffer yet another crushing defeat by my hands. I’ve decided to put the band back together and bring my former manager and mentor Adam Barker back into the fold as ONE of the men that will be watching my back as well. You see I’m planned for every possible variable and when the smoke clears and the dust settles there’s nothing that you’re going to be able to do to save yourself from the beating that is coming your way, and when that final bell tolls I will be standing tall and I will be YOUR EIGHT TIMES WGWF World Heavyweight Champion!
… You will finally be reminded one last time that losing to Chris Page doesn’t mean that you suck… It just means you’re like everyone else.
Oh.
Before I forget allow me to throw this parting shot at you, Tristan.
Best do yourself a favor and keep my name out of your mouth when it comes to the World Heavyweight Championship. Spoiler Alert, you will be facing me on the next edition of Monday Night Brawl for the World Title and no you won’t be leaving with it. At last check we’re split at one match a piece in our little series and I can’t think of a better way to close the book on you than by SUCCESSFULLY defending MY title against you in my first defense.
Deal with it.
The scene opens at the WGWF Corporate Offices in Los Angeles, California as Chris Page is shown strolling through the front lobby dressed in a nice three piece suit that’s been custom made looking as only he can look. The suit is black with charcoal pin strips that are paired with a pair of black dress shoes and a grey button up shirt with a black tie. He’s greeted by several corporate office employee’s that he has worked on and off with for years and they’re all smiles. Chris signs in at the front desk.
SECRETARY- “It’s good to see you back Mr. Page.”
As Chris finishes signing his name he glances at the secretary at the front desk as he states.
CHRIS PAGE- “I’m not back… I’m just here to see an old friend.”
Chris winks at her as he places the pen on the sign in sheet and is handed a visitor badge which he clips on to the lapel of his sport coat.
SECRETARY- “I’m assuming you know where you’re going?”
She asks which draws a blank stare from Chris Page who politely retorts.
CHRIS PAGE- “I think I got it.”
Chris turns and walks across the white tile floor towards the elevators. The doors to an elevator open up right upon his arrival as Chris steps on to the elevator before hitting the button marked “8”. The ride up is seemingly uneventful as a slow paced elevator music is lightly playing.

Adam starts to shake his head forward as he agrees.

ADAM BARKER- “Forgive me for prying if I am; how are you holding up? It’s been a minute since we’ve had a chance to sit down and talk. I know that you signed the divorce papers.”
There’s a deep sigh from Chris as he leans back against the back rest of the couch before responding.
CHRIS PAGE- “I’m coping.”
He states.
CHRIS PAGE- “It’s not easy to change everything about one section of your life but I’m doing the best I can. What’s done is done and there’s nothing that I can do about it; unfortunately.

We are on the cusp of what will be a monumental showdown, a little sliver of nostalgia for the die-hard fans that have been down since day one for this company and while the roles are reversed doesn’t change the facts that when you compare yourself to Chris Page you’re always going to be playing second fiddle, and I’ll be reminding you that in just a few short days come Caged In because you and I both know that as of this moment I am so far inside your head you can’t keep anything straight. I’ve been focused on you since the moment I became the Number One contender and I’ll remain focused on you until that closing bell tolls and they announce me as the eight times WGWF World Heavyweight Champion.
… Then what happens to you “kingdom”?
What happens to this façade that you and Alyce have tried to build up surrounded by the so called dominance you claim to have established when you’re left holding nothing but an empty bag and no title belt? I’ll tell you, it comes crumbling down and with another failed WGWF World Title defense under your belt you’ll have no choice but to realize everything Tristan Slater has said about you all along is nothing short of the truth. You’re the one that’s transitional and it eats you up inside. You know that you MUST win here in order to silence even your loudest critic but you also know that putting me down is easier said than done. Yeah, you’ve done it in the past… But this isn’t the past now is it? This is the present and from what I can tell living in the present revolves around how I have your number and just how far I am willing to go to burn your kingdom to the fucking ground. I dare you, hell I double dare you to prove me wrong… If you can.
Consider Caged In my gift to you.
Consider the gift of being transitional a badge of honor that guys like you and Paul Frost can wear on your sleeves with pride because there are not many of you out there but at least you’re in exclusive company.
I’m completely confident walking into this because I know how the game is played.
MDK will always have eyes in the back of his head in the form of Alyce Starchylde and her minions of followers and I won’t sit here and say that I’m not half expecting her to show her face the moment it looks like MDK is about to suffer yet another crushing defeat by my hands. I’ve decided to put the band back together and bring my former manager and mentor Adam Barker back into the fold as ONE of the men that will be watching my back as well. You see I’m planned for every possible variable and when the smoke clears and the dust settles there’s nothing that you’re going to be able to do to save yourself from the beating that is coming your way, and when that final bell tolls I will be standing tall and I will be YOUR EIGHT TIMES WGWF World Heavyweight Champion!
… You will finally be reminded one last time that losing to Chris Page doesn’t mean that you suck… It just means you’re like everyone else.
Oh.
Before I forget allow me to throw this parting shot at you, Tristan.
Best do yourself a favor and keep my name out of your mouth when it comes to the World Heavyweight Championship. Spoiler Alert, you will be facing me on the next edition of Monday Night Brawl for the World Title and no you won’t be leaving with it. At last check we’re split at one match a piece in our little series and I can’t think of a better way to close the book on you than by SUCCESSFULLY defending MY title against you in my first defense.
Deal with it.
