One on One w. Terry Borden
Moderated by Derrick Diamond:
Our scene opens as Derrick Diamond is shown sitting in front of some sort of backdrop. It’s graphics are unknown as there’s a tight shot of Derrick’s upper body revealing the charcoal blazer with a white button down underneath. Derrick officially welcomes us to his exclusive interview.
Diamond- “Ladies and Gentleman please welcome to this WGWF exclusive interview with not only a WGWF Hall of Fame inductee but he is also a Triple Crown winner and a national treasure where ever he goes; I’m talking about the one, the only… Terry Borden.”
The camera pans back not only revealing Terry Borden seated next to Derrick Diamond but a WGWF logo backdrop. Terry has on a yellow bandanna with the words “AMERICANMANIA” written in red across the front of it with a matching t-shirt which is all we can see given the camera shot that we have.
Diamond- “Thanks for taking the time to join me today.”
Terry Borden- “Thanks for having me.”
Terry stated in a humbled tone.
Diamond- “I have a lot of things that I want to talk about this afternoon but I think Wrestle Wars Twelve is just as good a start as any as it saw your return to the ring in a losing effort opposite Hawaiian Hardhead.”
Terry Borden- “Well I mean the only thing I can really say about dealing with Hardhead is that the better man came out on top and deserved to have his arm raised in victory. I never took anything away from HHH, brother! He’s an incredible talent for a bigger guy and I had a lot of fun with the entire build to our encounter. If anything I wish I could have gave him more of a fight when it came to the war of the words, dude; but would of, should of, could of, right?”
Terry pauses for a mere moment before he continues.
Terry Borden- “I gave him everything I could give but it simply wasn’t good enough. I wish Hardhead nothing but the best of luck against James Raven on Monday Night Brawl and I expect us all to see a very good contest.”
Diamond- “What do you think went wrong against Hardhead?”
Terry Borden- “Nothing went wrong, dude! He wanted it more; look I’m not going to sit here and make excuses like so many people seem to do. It would be easy for me of all people to make them but ultimately he won, I lost. He was more prepared, he wanted it more and he defeated me. At this juncture in my career I was glad that I could go out there and give him a semi competitive match that was well received by not only the crowd at Wrestle Wars but also my peers behind the curtain; so to answer your question, nothing went wrong.”
Diamond- “You talk about giving him a semi competitive match; I think everyone was proud of you for even thinking about stepping back into the ring at this stage in your life.”
Terry Borden- “It’s not a huge secrete that I’m a little over the hill and the prime of my career has come and gone and I’m okay with that. I have had one hell of a run from body slamming Padre’ The Giant at the Pontiac Silver Dome to the Ultimate Powers Exploding to by historic battles with Roddy Peeper and Ric Fliehr all the way to feuding with some of the younger stars of this generation; and the question lately is always asked, Terry, when are you going call it a career?”
Terry states.
Terry Borden- “The answer to that question has always been when I have nothing left to give to the business that’s made Terry Borden a household name.”
Terry seriously states.
Terry Borden- “Over the last year or so I’ve kind of enjoyed being in the background with the New Breed or the Glorious New Breed when that was a thing, I’ve enjoyed working with John, The Citizen and even THE Tristan Slater when the time called for it… and while I lost Wrestle Wars Twelve it was with that loss that a fire was lit inside me, working with Hardhead sparked a desire that hasn’t been in the pit of my stomach since Wrestle Wars Ten, Dude!”
Terry gazes over a Derrick as he continues.
Terry Borden- “It made me realize that maybe, just maybe I got one more run left in me, brother, and I have Hawaiian Hardhead to thank for that, dude!”
Derrick comes back with a surprising tone.
Diamond- “Wait… are you suggesting a full time return to the ring?”
Terry Borden- “I’m not suggesting anything, brother. I’m telling you that I am coming back full time because deep down in my heart I know I’ve got one more run in me and I know that on any given night I can beat any talent on any roster. I’ve captured the WGWF World Title once and I have no doubts that I can capture it again to tie a bow on my wrestling career once and for all, dude.”
Derrick leans back in his chair with a grin on his face that might suggest he’s a kid in a candy store as Terry continues.
Terry Borden- “And it starts Monday Night on Brawl against MDK and Alyce Starchylde!”
Terry emphatically states.
Terry Borden- “It starts against two opponents that I want nothing more to destroy! I’ve got plenty of history with Alyce Starchylde that needs to be addressed and I’d love nothing more than punching MDK in the face just for the sake of punching him in the face for being the slimy prick he’s turned into; but above all else I want to be a partner to John Cable that I know I can be.”
There’s a slight pause from Borden before he continues.
Terry Borden- “I know that when people look at this upcoming Tag Match that they automatically assume the Royal Family is going to walk all over us and that’s mainly due to my name be listed as John’s tag partner, well, I’m here to tell you Derrick and the rest of the WGWF universe that I’m using that as more fuel to the red and yellow fire, brother! MDK and Alyce can sell me as short as they want to sell me; good, because it’s going to feel so much better when the New Breed leaves this battle with a “w” in its column because they underestimated me and what I’m capable of bringing the too table.”
Derrick is sitting back and enjoying every word he’s hearing as he’s watched Terry Borden for nearly thirty years.
Terry Borden- “I didn’t win the Television Championship on several occasions because I don’t know what I’m doing, I didn’t run with the tag titles with the third longest reign in this company’s history with Sebastian St. Paul because I couldn’t get it done in the ring and I didn’t beat Tomoko Hanahara for the World Title if I wasn’t capable of winning this big one. While I might be a little older, I might not be as fast as I once was make absolutely no mistake about it when I say that I am STILL capable of not only giving something back to this federation, I’m capable of giving back to all my loyal AMERICANMANIACS out there that still believe in the training, the prayers and the vitamins and believing that you can be the very best that you want to be, brother!”
Terry turns his attention so that he is now facing the cameras as he states.
Terry Borden- “MDK, Alyce, Royal Family, Anarchy and anyone else that thinks for one second that I am your doormat, that I am your pushover, that I’m your easy “win” than you’re all in for a very, very rude awakening and your rude awakening starts Monday Night on Brawl in Osaka, Japan. Whatcha gunna do when me and all my Maniacs show up in the Land of the Rising Sun too run wild on you!!”
The scene fades to black.
BORDEN’S BLOG:
That’s right BROTHER! Terry Borden is back JACK! And back for one more run regardless of what anyone has to say about it, DUDES! I have to thank Hawaiian Hardhead for waking me back up and realizing how fun this can be, BROTHER! I’ve been rejuvenated and I am looking forward to the journey I am about to take regardless of how deep down the rabbit hole takes me and it’s going to start in Osaka, Japan as the Summer Madness World Tour officially kicks off Monday Night on Brawl. I’m not going to sit here and play dumb when it comes to Alyce Starchylde and MDK because I’m sure that they are under the same interpretations as everyone else in the WGWF universe, and that is I’m involved to be a fall guy. It’s okay, let’s address the elephant in the room and talk about it because if the shoe was on the other foot considering my recent showings I would brush me off as well, DUDE!
But unfortunately for the Royal Family they’re not getting the Terry Borden that is simply going through the motions, oh no, from this point forward you’re going to get the Terry Borden that fought and clawed his way to the top of the WGWF, the same Terry Borden that’s beaten a who’s who of the best this profession has to offer; and you know something, BROTHER, I might not win every match, I might not be as good as I once was but it damn sure isn’t going to stop me from giving whoever I am in the ring with the best Terry Borden that I can physically give them, DUDES! I owe it to the New Breed, I owe it to the roster, I owe it to myself but more importantly I owe it to all my AMERICANMANIACS around the world because AMERICANMANIA extends further than the United States, BROTHER! It’s a worldwide phenomenon that I still hold the key too DUDES!!
So let’s start this piece of business off against the one of you that I happen to have the most history with.
Alyce Starchylde.
Our paths cross again… SISTER!
How does it feel to know that I’ve done something that you can’t seem to do… win the WGWF World Title?
You know that’s going to be the hot button for you for a while now, right? Your failure at Wrestle Wars completely validated what everyone has been saying and everything everyone has said about you not even belonging in the ring with the World Title at stake. I mean, how can you legitimately show your face and think for one second that anyone is going to take you seriously? You got handed a Main Event for the World Title, you blew that chance by being beaten at your own game and now you’re walking into a contest on Monday Night Brawl sorely underestimating what I am going to bring to the table under the assumption that I’m your doormat to an easy victory.
Think again, SISTER!
I owe you from out last encounter inside that Steel Cage, DUDETT!!
I bet you thought that you were going to beat me within an inch of my life and get away with it, didn’t you? Payback time, bitch! I can’t think of a better way to pay you back than in front of 17,000 strong when you’re least expecting it. You more than anyone else need that bounce back, but it isn’t going to come at my expense, SISTER! I am looking forward to balling my fist up before planting my knuckles between those lustful little eyes! That’s right! I said it and I meant it! You put yourself in the ring with me on Monday Night Brawl you’ll be left in more embarrassment than you were left in at Wrestle Wars Twelve!!!
Bring Lunacy.
Bring Brother Maylock.
Bring The Jackdaw .
Bring Chris Page if you choose too.
Bring whoever you want and whoever you think will help your cause or case because clearly you’re not capable of doing anything of merit on your own while I on the other hand have already established that I am capable of doing what you’re not, SISTER! At least I’ve got that going for me. I guess it’s safe to say when it comes to you teaming with MDK you’re the dead weight, SISTER! And if I’m taking it a step further if you remove MDK from your equation what are you?
Don’t worry; I’ll wait for you to answer it.
What about MDK!
How do you feel about Alyce’s shortcomings? They say that you’re only as strong as your weakest link and when you look at Anarchy and Alyce I see a family that is cracking at the foundation. You know it and I know it, DUDE!
At least of all of us involved in this little affair you did walk out of Wrestle Wars with a victory.
Congratulations.
Not only did you garner a victory you did it in a match that I never even saw advertised as a “Say My Name” match so that was interesting in its own right, BROTHER! That is the past and here and now is the present which is going to lead us into the future. You and I have something in common as we’re both former World Champions but in this particular situation you’re the one carrying a lackey. Isn’t it funny how roles reverse because if I’m not mistaken wasn’t it about this time last year that you were running around calling John Cable a lackey to Tristan Slater and yet here we find ourselves in a situation where Alyce is to Cable as you are to Tristan.
Surprise mother fucker! Terry Borden is coming to play.
We find ourselves at a crossroads, don’t we? You might not see it but I promise your eye’s are going to be wide open by the time this promo comes to a close because you’re going to know that Monday Night Brawl isn’t going to be as easy as even you may think, BROTHER! I don’t give a crap about the contract you’re totting around or how sure fire you think you are for another reign as World Heavyweight Champion because you are the most appealing participant within this contest simply because of your name recognition alone, DUDE! A win over anything that your name is attached do will do nothing more than further make all the talent in the back step up and take notice that grandpa still has life left in em’ BROTHER! This is a personal quest that you will play a role in as the roles will be reversed and both you and Alyce are going to be used as the doormats; the Royal Family is going to be the stepping stone as it crumbles under the pressure that is AMERICANMANIA that is led by TERRY BORDEN, DUDE!! With the eyes of the world locked upon Osaka as the proverbial reset button has been hit I’ll grace the squared circle with a Beast that needs to be unleashed. People can say whatever they wish about John and many of you already have; but BROTHER, I believe that there’s more to John than any of you care to give credit for and while your opinions are your opinions it’s going to be hard to take any of them seriously when you’re both left looking up at the lights, DUDES! I look at this as my moment to break out and once again establish myself within the active roster of this federation, BROTHER! And I’m going to make every minute that I’m in this match count regardless if it’s MDK or Alyce Starchylde standing across from me.
I’m going to give John and all my AMERICANMANIACS, all my JAPANESEMANIACS everything I got.
The red and yellow train is about to pull out of the station, DUDE!!
Stay out of the track and out of my way!
WHATCHA GUNNA DO WHEN ME AND ALL MY AMERICANMANIACS RUN WILD ON YOU!!!
