-The camera cuts to the backstage area of Meltdown 52. We the see the WZCW Doctor in front of a figure whose sitting on the locker room medical table. He hands the figure an ice pack covered in a towel and walks off, telling the figure hell be back to check on him later. As he walks away, the figure is revealed to be Brad Bomb, whose face is scrunched up in anger. His free hand his clenched into a fist and he keeps pounding the table with it. At that point, Chuck Myles walks into the locker room.-
Brad Bomb, hey! Hows the head? he laughs and while doing so, Brad Bomb gets up off the medical table and walks over to Myles-
You son of a bitch, you lied to me. You said Blade wasnt here and yet what happens after my match? Im on the receiving end of a chair shot to the HEAD! Bombs face has gone red with anger as he stares down Myles, who seems less than awash with fear-
I said I hadnt seen him, not that he wasnt here. Anyway, its not like youd won or hed screwed you out of the EurAsian title or anything.
True but arent you seemingly forgetting that just over a month ago, I returned from a concussion caused by Big Dave, who used the same DAMNED WEAPON AS BLADE! Do you not see how he couldve re-injured me?! Unlike Blade I actually value my career, which is why you dont find me going through packs of cigarettes like Pez! Myles is still unfazed by Brad Bombs shouting and aggressiveness; instead he still has a smirk on his face that only widens as he listens to Bomb-
What Blade does in his spare time is his busine- -Bomb cuts Myles off before he can finish, this wipes the smirk from Myles face and instead hes now visibly annoyed-
I dont care about that! What I care about is what youre going to do about it! I want Blade one-on-one next week and I dont care if I have to go over to Ascension to do it. So I suggest you phone Vance Bateman and you get to talking before I decide to either a) go over there or make my presence felt or b) decide to take out my anger right here and now!
Look! Nobody dares interrupt me and most importantly nobody dares threaten me either! So you listen and you listen good if you attempt either, I can guaran-damn-tee you that youll be out of this company and facing a lawsuit quicker than Barbosa can switch personalities! Bomb backs off from Myles; hes still angry but knows theres nothing he can do about it now-
-Bomb walks away from Myles, his back now turned on the GM and instead he faces the wall with his head looking down. Hes still firmly pressing the towel onto his head as he turns head to look over his shoulder staring at the GM- What now then? He looks back down-
Nice to see youve calmed a little. he smirks- Ill get in touch with Bateman, see if theres any way we can organise an appearance for you Ascension. In the meantime, Im concerned about your aggression. Bomb turns around to face Myles- Instead of being passive-aggressive, youve returned to outward aggression, even confronting members of the public! Its taken me all week to play down the affair at The Sludge Pit to the media. Bomb lowers his head at the mention of the confrontation-
So what do you expect me to do? he grumbles under his breath-
In the meantime, channel your aggression towards your matches and your training or find a way to relax. If get any reports of you lashing out in public again, Ill make sure youre a thousand of miles away from New York City. Im glad this is sorted. Myles walks out of the locker room. Bomb sit back down on the medical table, the camera fading to black as he sits on the table, with his head in hands-

-The next scene is of Brad Bomb on a balcony, sat down by a table, hes wearing blue short-sleeve shirt with a plan white t-shirt on underneath and some khakis. As he looks out over the balcony, the camera pans with his eyesight, catching the full beauty of the view. The sky is clear, the sun shining, the golden sand on the beach all accompanied by the gentle sound of the waves crashing into the rocks can be heard in the back ground.
Brad gently sips on a glass of orange juice before placing it on the table next to a copy of the Daily Mail. He reclines in his seat, his hands on the back of his head. He seems at ease for a moment before hes interrupted by the sound of Taylor Swifts Love Story. He puts his hand into his pocket and pulls out his phone.
Hello?
Voice: Hi.
Who is this?
Oh sorry, I dont think weve actually spoke properly before. Im Vance Bateman, GM of Ascension. Bombs eyes light up as he realises who hes talking- Im calling you about a match on Ascension next week.
Are you giving me Blade, one-on-one? Is it for the spot in the EurAsian title match at Kingdom Come? Thats what I want in on. Please tell me its Blade one-on-one. Bomb gets up out of his seat and now is walking round the balcony-
Well Im very sorry to disappoint you but you wont be facing Blade this week and it wont be involving the EurAsian championship. However, I think I have something a little bit better for you. Bomb stops and leans over the balcony rail. He has a confused look on his face after he hears what Bateman said-
What is it?Bomb sits back down, taking another sip of his drink-
Im giving you the chance to be the next Elite-X Champion. At this moment Bomb spits his drink out over the balcony-
Ok who am I facing? he says trying to regain composure-
Youll be facing Michael Winters, in a best-of-three series to determine the new Elite X Champion at Kingdom Come. Bomb quickly does the math in his head-
But what if one of us wins the series 2-0 and gets the title the week before Kingdom Come?
Well cross that bridge when we come to it. Now, I got to go so good luck in the series, Im expecting some good matches between you two. Bye.
Bye. He hangs up the phone and then looks on awestruck about what hes just heard. It takes a moment for it to kick in before suddenly realises hes not dreaming.-
Wow. This is big
no! This is huge. Elite X Champion. Brad Bomb, your new Elite X Champion. Damn that has a nice ring to it. I can see it now; me lifting the belt as the fans going wild, girls tripping over themselves to get to me. Ill be big time business. Everyone will want a piece. I couldve even give Showtime a chance to win his title back after he loses to Ty at Kingdom Come. Ill be the next-biggest thing in WZCW. Bomb rests his head on his hands, the look on his face changes from one of surprise to seriousness-
But what about my opponent? Mr Michael Winters. He sure did have a good start. A participant in my Contract Battle Royale
the winner in fact. In the process he managed to eliminate me as well. Ah yes, I sincerely hope he hasnt forgotten that. He wriggled his way out of the Detonator too
but if hes still the same in the ring then hes still weak to my technical prowess. That will be the key to victory, the oh-so important victory. One has to wonder though what will his approach be?
This is a series. Its not just about getting the one pinfall or submission, its about making sure youve got enough to win more than that. Two matches are guaranteed to happen and third is likely. Do either of us really want to go all out in the first match and give away everything weve got? Can we afford to do that? Sure were both talented wrestlers but were almost one in the same. Both 6ft 6 and only 6lbs weight differential. If not for my technical superiority, wed have been wrestling twins
So it really does come down to how confident we are with abilities. I know I have what it takes to beat him and on his day he can beat me. But this is just the start, the beginning of what I can tell is going to be a great series and create a new era of Elite X Champion.
-Bomb once again goes back to reclining in his chair, a smile on his face. The camera pans away from Bomb, once again capturing the view as it faces the clear blue sky, it fades to black.-
