*The camera turns on to find THRASH Ogawa sitting on a bench in the locker room attached to the UBL Dojo. He is staring intensely at the Universal Circuit Title belt in his hands. Despite hearing the camera crew starting to set up their shot, his eyes remain fixed on his prize. After a few seconds, he grunts and starts talking.*
[THRASH:] "Due to Wingate splitting the Collider Tour in two, I'm now the only singles Champ of the entire Dimensional stream. So...I guess this kind of news calls for a celebration, huh?"
*THRASH jumps up to his feet, yells "F*CK," and then intentionally headbutts the locker right in front of him. The camera man immediately backs up a little, giving him room. As blood runs down his forehead, THRASH begins pacing around the room with an expression of rage. The defenseless locker he attacked is completely destroyed.*
[THRASH:] "Was everything I said last year f'n forgotten? This Title...
*THRASH punches it in the center plate and jams it into the camera's view*
[THRASH:] "This Title only has meaning to me if I can put it on the line against everyone.
It's not my reward, it's my golden f'n ticket to fighting the entire roster. "
*THRASH removes the Belt from the close-up shot and we see his sarcastic grin.*
[THRASH:] "Hell, I'll have to ask Geese Walker if the stock market crashed so hard that even Championships are affected by inflation. Maybe that explains why this Title only buys half of what it did last month.
UBL pulled the rug right under me with this bullshit split stream tour. I wanted the best in this promotion and now, if I'm lucky, I'll get half of the best. Cause I'm already looking at the people in the Continuum league and shit, they're everyone I want to fight!! Gordon, O'Brian, RYOMA, Wang, Saji. Hell, I'll fight Tetsu a hundred times more cause he'll fight like a Champion every single time. But now all of them are going to be held up for 2 goddamn years challenging for a new Title.
And no, that isn't my problem. I don't give a shit about the prestige of a unified Title that will probably get defended once a year. I just want to be able to fight anyone, every month.
*THRASH takes a few deep breaths as his blood runs down his face.*
[THRASH:] "Wingate - let's make this simple. I doubt you want to add yet another Title to the Infinite Continuum mix and mine isn't meant to be unified cause its new and different.
So here's my offer - it's my first and final one: I want in on both streams. I don't even care about the new Title. Just put me in a block and let me fight to the Finals. You don't have to put my Title on the line, and you don't have to reward me with the new one when I win. Give it to Sanders, for all I care. At least then when he runs away with it like a little bitch, no one will care all that much.
But if I don't get the chance to fight everyone in each stream, you can find yourself a new Circuit Champion - cause this belt doesn't mean anything to me if it's not my buy-in to bash some f'n heads in."
*THRASH walks away dragging the Title on the floor and the scene fades out.*
