Unnamed Luxury Hotel
Times sqaure, New York City
11pm
Fraser Freeman and his recently reacquainted girlfriend Jade are under the covers of a four-poster bed in a luxury bedroom in an exclusive Times square hotel. The walls slick and white with lavish gold leaves scattered around, there is high quality wooden furniture and a luxury en-suite with a luxury double bath, certainly the kind of place that makes you feel like royalty. The pair have just let off some steam per say, unleashing some more of the pent up sexual frustration that arose from being apart for some time. Jade snuggled into the chest of Freeman looking up at the ceiling with a beaming smile on her face clearly happy to be here.
Jade: This place Frase! You rlly spared no expense! It is lovely, meks me feel like a queen!
Freeman smirks and begins to speak in a posh yee old english accent.
Freeeman: Only the best for you my fair lady
Freeman smirks, a wide beaming grin on his face, it is clear he is so happy to have Jade back in his life and judging by her body language she is more than happy to be by his side.
Jade: why thank ya my Sin City Knight in shining armour
Jade kisses freeman on the cheek and smiles sweetly at him, grabbing his arm and snuggling up tight to him, she looks up her big blue eyes staring right at him invitingly.
Jade: I'm so happy we're finally a proper couple, and now here we are.
Freeman: Thank you for coming with me for this Jade glad you came with me
Jade: Your Kidding right? Like I would pass up the opportunity to spend a romantic weekend with you in this place. I mean come on look at it, tis like summat out of a fairytale!
Freeman: Touché my darling. But as you know this trip is as much about business as pleasure. Is everything in order for tomorrow?
Jade: Oh Frase, dat lil faith in me? Theres a reason Baron kept me on for da business side of things you know!
Freeman: Yeah a fine piece of ass to distract his business associates whilst he pitches them a terrible idea!
Jade jabs Freeman in the ribs as he laughs. The reality is that he knows in his mind that Jade is an astute businesswoman who given her background is surprisingly excelling in a more business based environment.
Jade: Hey if you got it flaunt it! But come on Frase im way more than jus a prety face! As for tomorrow everythin is in place. 10Am you will be meeting Labron Jordan, a man that back in the day saw all of Vinnies fights in Hells Haven. Then at 2pm you will be meeting Curtis Micheals, a young gang banger in the NYC area, he shud be able to cast a light on Vinnies Gang days. Finally we will go look at da streets Vinnie and his gang ruled back in da day.
Freeman: Brilliant, glad to know that everything is in order.
Freeman said that with a tone in his voice that suggested that he doubted Jade could get the business side of things down, even though he knew she would, it amuses him to wind her up. Jade rolls her eyes and springs upright, and proceeds to roll on top of Freeman. She pins him to the bed by his wrists and smirks at him.
Jade: Hows this for getting things done!
Jade leans in as if she is going to kiss him but pulls back and shakes her head from side to side as if to say no, clearly teasing him, she does this a few more times before finally swooping down and the pair passionately kiss.
Saturday 16th Augusts 2014
8am
It is now the next morning. Jade is laying asleep in bed and Fraser Freeman is at the hotel room door. See Freeman is picking up his specially ordered breakfast in bed for Jade, he quietly opens the door and takes the tray off the man at the door and gives him a $10 bill for his troubles. Freeman spins round tray in hand and uses his foot to slam the door shut, deliberately waking Jade who stretches and sits up in bed as Freeman makes his way over. As she opens her eyes she sees Fraser placing the tray down on the bed in front of her.
Jade: Awwwww Frase is this for me!
Jade looks at the tray and sees red rose petals scattered over it with her favourite breakfast on the tray, Greek style yoghurt with fresh fruit and granolla topping and 2 slices of toast and jam on the side and a freshly brewed pot of English breakfast tea, She begins beaming widely, feeling loved and cared for by the man she loves.
Jade: My faves, you know me so well, I love you honey.
Freeman smiles at Jade and says “I love you too” he does indeed know her well, hell he was in charge of keeping her safe for many years. The fact that he had always held a flame in his heart for her all these years just made him want to know more. Freeman knows more about Jade than she could ever imagine.
Freeman: I will leave you to it and go get dressed get ready for the day ahead.
Freeman leans forward and kisses Jade on the forehead before turning and heading for the en-suite bathroom to freshen up for the day ahead.

Somewhere in NYC
Outside what use to Hells Haven
10am
The scene opens up as Fraser Freeman is seen walking towards a rather tall black man, who is dressed in a white suit and pink shirt. This man is Labron Jordan, a high powered New York City stock trader who works on wall street. Labron has a secret passion however, see when not at work Labron enjoys nothing more than watching illegal street fights and placing bets on the outcomes. Freeman and James shake hands as they reach one another. The camera pans in on the pair.
Freeman: Good morning UWA universe, I am here today in the heart of New York City, stood outside this old factory building. This building use to be known as Hells Haven, inside this building the toughest of the toughest of New York’s street fighters traded blows in illegal unsanctioned fights in brutal bone crunching contests. Today I have come here to see for myself where Vince Jones use to hurt people, to see with my own eyes where Vince got his reputation for violence, as I embark on a mission to better understand the man behind the violence.
Freeman: With me at this time I have Labron Jordan, a man who can shed some light on what use to go on in this very building and a man that saw every single fight Vince Jones took part in. Thank you for agreeing to meet with me Labron.
Labron Jordan: Its my pleasure
Labron is a well spoken man, who is clearly more than happy to share his memories with Freeman and the UWA public.
Freeman: So Labron can you tell us exactly what it use to be like here at hells haven? More specifically can you tell me what Vince Jones got up to in his time fighting here and how he carried himself?
Labron Jordan: Oh man, shit was crazy here at hells haven. The most brutal fights I have ever seen in my life happened in this very building and the most brutal of them all involved the man you mentioned Vince Jones. That cat was violent in every sense of the word, the beating he put on his opponents pure brutality no remorse hell he nearly killed a few guys he beat them that bad.
Freeman: I see no Labron you mention he was violent, would you say he was cold and calculated or more hell for leather?
Labron: Oh there was nothing calculated about him, he was just pure violence, utter destruction, he would go in the ring and rip his opponent apart as fast as he could, revel in the victory, slag the fuck out of the fans and then leave in his own little bubble.
Freeman: So he just went in did the job as quickly as he could and left?
Labron Jordan nods in agreement with Freeman.
Freeman: Well thank you very much Labron, you have been very helpful as I embark on y pursuit to better understand the psyche of Vince Jones.
Labron Jordan puts his hand out and the pair shake hands and Labron walks away out of shot.
Freeman: Stay tuned for more reports from New York later today as I continue to look at Vince Jones's old life here in New York.

11:30am
Cony Island, NYC
With time to kill until there next piece of business in New York Fraser Freeman and Jade have decided to pay a visit to Coney island. Jade and Freeman are walking side by side eating Coney Island Hot Dogs in luna park, seemingly enjoying indulging in the islands world famous snack. The pair finish there hot dogs and throw the dirty napkins in a trash can.
Freeman: I got to say that was better than I was expecting
Jade: meh Ive had better sausage than that!
Freeman shakes his head from side to side as Jade begins to laugh realising that he is going to take that as a sexual innuendo.
Jade: Head out of the gutter you!
Freeman: What me? Really? Like I would ever have my head in the gutter
Freeman rolls his eyes and looks away looking shifty, before bursting out into laughter. Meanwhile Jade just shakes her head and rolls her eyes. Freeman grabs a hold of Jades arm and starts to drag her towards a game stand.
Freeman: Hey look giant stuffed rabbits
Jade: what so because your always calling me a rabbit in the bedroom your now going to try and win me one as a constant reminder?
Freeman chuckles a bit to himself
Freeman: Your damn fucking right I am!
Freeman walks up to the game counter, it is one of them fairground games where you get 3 balls and you have to knock over a target with one of them to win the prize. Freeman pulls a note out of his pocket and slaps it down on the bench.
Game Vendon: Al right 3 chances to win, knock over the target and win the prize
Freeman throws the first ball and it skims the side of the target.
Jade: Oooo close one
Freeman throws the next ball and it catches half of the tafrget this time but it bounces off and the target remains in tact.
Freeman: ok what I hit that, come on man this has to be a fix
Game Vendor: If the targets still standing your not a winner
Freeman shakes his head and winds up for the final throw and ping it hits the target at full force right in the centre, but to his ultimate shock it is left standing.
Freeman: Oh come on this is rigged, you clearly saw I hit that bang on.
Game Vendor: Target standing, no winner better luck next time
Freeman: Oh come on man
Game Vendor: Better luck next time
Freeman shakes his head realising he has just been duped, conned out of $5 and he is not going to stand for it. Freeman begins looking around surveying the area before walking over to a trash can and picking it up.
Jade: Frase what you doing!
Freeman: Getting you that damn rabbit!
Freeman walks back over to the game counter and hurls the trash can at the stall and it hits flush on the target snapping it in half and going through the back of the stall. Freeman reaches up above him and pulls down one of the Giant rabbits grabs Jades hand and starts to run off.
Jade: Dammit Frase I thought this side of you was gone
The pair are conversing whilst running for the exit. Adrenaline running through their veins, Freeman knows it was the wrong thing to do in terms of laws butif they can break the rules duping him, least he can do is break some of his own.
Freeman: No matter which side of me is present, I aint standing for getting conned by some schmuch in a fairground!
Jade shakes her head and tuts, but truth be told she isnt that upset, it was clear to see the game was a fix, nobody one cause it was set to lose every time. I guess she views what Freeman just did as a man standing up for his principles and meeting underhanded deeds head on with underhanded ones of his own. The scene fades out as Freeman and Jade run into the subway.
2pm
Outside Area of a beaten up coffee shop
Down town NYC
Fraser Freeman is seen sat in the outside area of an old coffee shop in a run down area of down town NYC. The furniture old and weather beaten, the sign above the door non existent all that remains are the outlines of where the sign once stood, swept away by bad weather clearly some years ago. A young man dressed in a New York Knicks jersey blue jeans and enough bling to sink the titanic, all of his teeth are gold capped. This is Curtis Micheals, a young gang banger and leader of the NYC Gremlins gang.
Freeman: Welcome back to New York, at this point I am glad to be joined by Curtis Micheals, leader of a local gang. Curtis today I would like to ask you a few questions about Vince Jones and the EDW.
Curtis Micheals: Shit Vinny Jones, dats a name I aint heard in a long fuckin time! Tell me dis wha you wanna know about Vinny for? I aint no fuckin snitch yo!
Freeman: Ah fear not I am not part of the bacon patrol, I simply have how shall I say an issue with him and I want to know more about what makes him tick.
Curtis Micheals: Ok cool cool, first things first doh, show me da benjamins and maybes then I might know somthin ya digg?
Freeman reaches into his pocket and pulls out 5 $50 dollar bills and places them on the table in front of him. Micheals snaps them up and clutches them tight like there his new born son.
Curtis Micheals: Aight, so Vinny Jones, the Violence, the ring leader of da infamous EDW. U aughta be carefull if you got yurself mixed up wit dat cat. Vince Jones is one crazy ass Nigga! I mean shit ive herd stories bout him cuttin a guy jus for lookin at him da wrong way.
Freeman: What can you tell me about his upbringing and the EDW?
Curtis Micheals: Shit his upbringin, truth be told I didnt know dat cat all too well. But upbringing hell a typical of around dees parts yo. Brought up hand to mouth, fightin for scraps ta eat to stay alive, turns to da life of crime at a young age to better himself. Dats where the EDW come in yo, see make no mistake the EDW were Vinnies crew, yeah there was in fightin, squables on who da leader was but push come ta shove Vinny got dem all in line and showed who da boss was. One cold crazy cat Vinny but not just all muscle, see he were da brains yo, the smart one, da mastermind of da gang.
Freeman: So Vinny turned to crime to provide a better life for his familly? He did this by controling a group of his friends and became a powerfull wellknown gang?
Curtis Micheals: Wellknown? shit da EDW are infamous in deez parts, dey got ma respect yo, but plain n simple yo, deez parts belong to me n da NYC Gremlins now, Vinny J or the EDW show dare asses round deez parts ima bust a cap in there asses yo.
Freeman: Well folks there you have it, more insight into the life of Vince Jones, thank you very much for your time Curtis.
Freeman puts his hand out to shake Curtis's hand. Curtis shakes his head from side to side.
Curtis Micheals: Pfft I aint shakin hands wit no prissy white boy yo, I cant have ma peeps seein dat shit!
Curtis walks off with a giant swagger in his step as he counts the bills in his hand.
Freeman: Well it seems Vince Jones isnt the only gang banger with no manners! Stay tuned folks there is one last visit to be paid here in NYC.
The stream fades to black.
4pm
Empire State building
NYC
Fraser Freeman and Jade are at the top of the Empire state building, standing side by side, freeman with his arm round Jades shoulder hugging her tight as they look out over New York. The pair turn and begin to passionately kiss whilst a chubby man in his mid 40s walks past and tuts as if he has never seen a public display of affection before. The pair turn back to looking out over the city.
Jade: Its beautiful isn’t it
Freeman: Indeed, it is hard to believe that a bottom feeding, low life scumbag like Vince comes from a place that from a height looks so beautiful. But that in itself is the problem with the world today Jade.
Jade: It is?
Freeman: Yep, see hun, ugly, disgusting, vile, evil lurks around every corner, hiding in plain sight in amongst all the beauty. See your average Joe doesnt even notice it let alone acknowledge it, no they turn a blind eye. See this is why people like Vince Jones get away with as much as they do. People look in the opposite direction, avoid confrontation at all costs, meanwhile the evil just grows bigger and bigger. See Vince Jones is one of those very evils, he takes what he wants and to hell with anyone who gets in his way. I must stop him Jade, I cant stand by and watch as he grows bigger and more powerful, I have to make a stand and at the very least try to stop him before it gets out of hand.
Jade: Try? I get the feeling you have your doubts?
Freeman: Not going to lie Jade, this is going to be the battle of my life, it is going to be the defining moment in my career and god forbid I should fall short of winning. Im under no false illusions, there is a chance it will be me put into the back of an ambulance. Vince is cold hearted and unforgiving, he is violence itself, but I am not going to bow down before him. I am going to stand toe to toe with him, I am going to exhange blow after blow after blow till one of us can no longer move.
Jade: So its not a lack of confidence then?
Freeman: Not at all not one bit, I am just not going to make the mistake of under estimating him. I will give this fight every last drop of my very being and I will have no regrets win or lose. It all ends next Sunday Jade, this war that me and Vinny have been fighting will come to a close and when the dust settles I will know in my heart of hearts I gave it everything I had.
Jade: Your going to win! I know it sweetie, I feel it in my heart! Your passion, your intensity, your dedication to the business, Vince doesnt have any of that! He is just a thug, he only cares about status and hurting people.
Freeman and Jade hug and share another passionate kiss as the scene fades out as Freeman and Jade go back to staring out across the city.
6pm
Somewhere in NYC
The scene opens up in a beaten up old street of houses in New York City. Half of the houses are boarded up and grafiti lines the walls on every house. The camera pans round as Fraser Freeman’s last NYC broadcast to the UWA Universe begins to air. Fraser Freeman is walking down this street and suddenly stops as the camera focuses in on him.
Here we are folks, my last port of call in NYC. This very street is a representation of where Vince Jones grew up. See my journey here in New York has all been about finding out more about Vince Jones, finding out what makes him tick. If I am honest I havent really found out anything that vastly changes my perceptions of the man, in fact my journey has simply cemented them.
There is a tone of calm in the voice of Fraser Freeman, he is cool and collected as he is addressing the UWA universe. There is a deep steely determination in his eyes and he looks like he means business.
See Vince Jones grew up in a rough neighbourhood, In a street much like the one I stand in right now, hell it may have even been this very street for all I know. He grew up hand to mouth and turned to crime at an early age to put food on the table, using what smarts he has and his sheer physical presence to pull himself out the gutter. Later in life he turned to street Fighting where he once more used his physical stature to get what he craves most. Money and status! See it is obvious that is all Vince Jones has always been about, his reputation and having more money than the next guy.
Each word spoke with conviction and passion. It is as if Freeman is a preacher delivering a passionate sermon to his fellow followers.
Today I have found out a lot about Vince, hell some of it even made me doubt if I can win our war at raising hell. But then it dawned on me, Vince doesn’t have the sheer grit and determination to beat me! He doesn’t have the dogged will power and commitment to the cause that would be required to beat me. See this war only ends one way and that is with the victor incapacitating his opponent to the point where he needs a ride to the local ER. There is no way in hell Vince Jones can outlast the onslaught I am going to throw at him to get me to that point!
Theres a wide confident smirk etched of Freemans face as he shakes his head from side to side. We havent seen this level of confidence from Double F for a very long time.
See I am a fighter, a battler I allays have been and I always will be. See Vince and I actually have something in common and it is that very thing that shows how much we are polar opposites. I too didn’t have the best start in life, I too grew up in a deprived area, no food on the table most nights. Going day to day not knowing if I would even have a roof over my head in a months time, as my mother worked three jobs and most the time it barely payed for rent and bills. See Vince the thing that makes up opposites is you always take the easy option, the option that achieves the goal at hand in the quickest fashion. You began using your intelligence and physical stature to provide for your family by turning to a life of crime, taking what you wanted when you wanted it. You didn’t work hard for it Vince you stole it. Then there is your time as a street fighter, I have talked to people who have seen you fight Vince, your a typical slugger, you go in swinging, using your size and strength to overwhelm your adversary once more taking the easy option!
Freeman rolls his eyes in disgust and can be heard tuting out loud. It is clear as he delivers his passionate speech that to him Vince is nothing more than a chancer.
See Vince all my life unlike you I have done things the right way. I got me and my family out of poverty through hard work and dedication, I used my intelligence to gain a good education, I got education grants and I started working any job I could get at 13 years old on top of all my studies. Then there is my wrestling career, I have toed the line, I have done everything the right way, I have respected my peers and have championed the code of honour that this proud industry use to be known for. I have faced obstacle after obstacle and never once have I taken the easy option, never once have I stooped as low as to steal a victory or use illegal means to win. Then there’s you, your no stranger to that are you Vince? That title you have around your waist is proof of that isn’t it! See you stole it, you snook in and stole it right from under the nose of Kyle Travis after he did all the work didn’t you!
Freeman points at the screen and shakes his head from side to side in disgust at the under handed tactics Vince has willingly deployed in his time in UWA.
See it has all became very clear in my minds eye today Vince, I need not worry about you stealing another victory, I need not worry about falling short at the final hurdle. See Vince the harsh reality is you have already defeated yourself. Your whole entire life you have took the easy route, you have always put in the least effort you could and so far got the job done. But that is going to end at Raising Hell Vince. The man that will be stood before you like a rabid dog waiting for his prey will be me. A man who ALLWAYS pushes himself to the limit in EVERYTHING he does. See there is no easy route for your to take at Raising Hell Vince, there is no back-door escape. What awaits you at Raising hell is the fight of your life and you Sir are not going to know what has hit you when that bell rings. Every time you think you have me, I will bounce right back hitting you with all I have, whilst there is breath in my lungs I will continue to hunt you down like the dog you are.
Freeman is breathing heavy, the blood coursing through his veins. Each word was spoken with a level of passion and intensity that has literally taken his breath away. He takes a few deep breaths to steady himself before returning to his more calm demeanour of before.
There is an old saying that through out time has been said a million times Vince. “A leopard never changes its spots” and for the most part it rings true. With that in mind Vince you will go to the same A game you always do, you will look for the easy route, you will search for that quick escape. But what happens when you cant find an easy route? What happens when there is no quick escape? Let me tell you exactly what happens Vince, you become like a deer caught in headlights, startled and shocked, stunned and unaware of what is going on around you. When that light glares in your eyes Vince it will all be too late, the game will already be over, you will have hit your final Free-Fall and you will be getting stuffed into the back of an ambulance.
Once more there is a confident smirk firmly etched on the Freeman’s face. He has absolute belief that he will be the man standing tall as the victor and that is very very evident in his demeanour.
Polish that belt up real nice Vince, revel in every moment you have with it, because your reign is on borrowed time, the clock is ticking down to zero and whit the last second ticks away on Sunday your reign of terror will be over!
Freeman raises his left hand up slowly like a plane rising up through the sky, only to bring it back down and making a whistling noise followed by a big boom. This is to signify that Vince Jones's Free-Fall is imminent and there is nothing that can be done to stop it! The scene fades to black as Freeman walks down the street away from the camera.

Freeman walks up to the game counter, it is one of them fairground games where you get 3 balls and you have to knock over a target with one of them to win the prize. Freeman pulls a note out of his pocket and slaps it down on the bench.
Game Vendon: Al right 3 chances to win, knock over the target and win the prize
Freeman throws the first ball and it skims the side of the target.
Jade: Oooo close one
Freeman throws the next ball and it catches half of the tafrget this time but it bounces off and the target remains in tact.
Freeman: ok what I hit that, come on man this has to be a fix
Game Vendor: If the targets still standing your not a winner
Freeman shakes his head and winds up for the final throw and ping it hits the target at full force right in the centre, but to his ultimate shock it is left standing.
Freeman: Oh come on this is rigged, you clearly saw I hit that bang on.
Game Vendor: Target standing, no winner better luck next time
Freeman: Oh come on man
Game Vendor: Better luck next time
Freeman shakes his head realising he has just been duped, conned out of $5 and he is not going to stand for it. Freeman begins looking around surveying the area before walking over to a trash can and picking it up.
Jade: Frase what you doing!
Freeman: Getting you that damn rabbit!
Freeman walks back over to the game counter and hurls the trash can at the stall and it hits flush on the target snapping it in half and going through the back of the stall. Freeman reaches up above him and pulls down one of the Giant rabbits grabs Jades hand and starts to run off.
Jade: Dammit Frase I thought this side of you was gone
The pair are conversing whilst running for the exit. Adrenaline running through their veins, Freeman knows it was the wrong thing to do in terms of laws butif they can break the rules duping him, least he can do is break some of his own.
Freeman: No matter which side of me is present, I aint standing for getting conned by some schmuch in a fairground!
Jade shakes her head and tuts, but truth be told she isnt that upset, it was clear to see the game was a fix, nobody one cause it was set to lose every time. I guess she views what Freeman just did as a man standing up for his principles and meeting underhanded deeds head on with underhanded ones of his own. The scene fades out as Freeman and Jade run into the subway.
2pm
Outside Area of a beaten up coffee shop
Down town NYC
Fraser Freeman is seen sat in the outside area of an old coffee shop in a run down area of down town NYC. The furniture old and weather beaten, the sign above the door non existent all that remains are the outlines of where the sign once stood, swept away by bad weather clearly some years ago. A young man dressed in a New York Knicks jersey blue jeans and enough bling to sink the titanic, all of his teeth are gold capped. This is Curtis Micheals, a young gang banger and leader of the NYC Gremlins gang.
Freeman: Welcome back to New York, at this point I am glad to be joined by Curtis Micheals, leader of a local gang. Curtis today I would like to ask you a few questions about Vince Jones and the EDW.
Curtis Micheals: Shit Vinny Jones, dats a name I aint heard in a long fuckin time! Tell me dis wha you wanna know about Vinny for? I aint no fuckin snitch yo!
Freeman: Ah fear not I am not part of the bacon patrol, I simply have how shall I say an issue with him and I want to know more about what makes him tick.
Curtis Micheals: Ok cool cool, first things first doh, show me da benjamins and maybes then I might know somthin ya digg?
Freeman reaches into his pocket and pulls out 5 $50 dollar bills and places them on the table in front of him. Micheals snaps them up and clutches them tight like there his new born son.
Curtis Micheals: Aight, so Vinny Jones, the Violence, the ring leader of da infamous EDW. U aughta be carefull if you got yurself mixed up wit dat cat. Vince Jones is one crazy ass Nigga! I mean shit ive herd stories bout him cuttin a guy jus for lookin at him da wrong way.
Freeman: What can you tell me about his upbringing and the EDW?
Curtis Micheals: Shit his upbringin, truth be told I didnt know dat cat all too well. But upbringing hell a typical of around dees parts yo. Brought up hand to mouth, fightin for scraps ta eat to stay alive, turns to da life of crime at a young age to better himself. Dats where the EDW come in yo, see make no mistake the EDW were Vinnies crew, yeah there was in fightin, squables on who da leader was but push come ta shove Vinny got dem all in line and showed who da boss was.

Freeman puts his hand out to shake Curtis's hand. Curtis shakes his head from side to side.
Curtis Micheals: Pfft I aint shakin hands wit no prissy white boy yo, I cant have ma peeps seein dat shit!
Curtis walks off with a giant swagger in his step as he counts the bills in his hand.
Freeman: Well it seems Vince Jones isnt the only gang banger with no manners! Stay tuned folks there is one last visit to be paid here in NYC.
The stream fades to black.
4pm
Empire State building
NYC
Fraser Freeman and Jade are at the top of the Empire state building, standing side by side, freeman with his arm round Jades shoulder hugging her tight as they look out over New York. The pair turn and begin to passionately kiss whilst a chubby man in his mid 40s walks past and tuts as if he has never seen a public display of affection before. The pair turn back to looking out over the city.
Jade: Its beautiful isn’t it
Freeman: Indeed, it is hard to believe that a bottom feeding, low life scumbag like Vince comes from a place that from a height looks so beautiful. But that in itself is the problem with the world today Jade.
Jade: It is?
Freeman: Yep, see hun, ugly, disgusting, vile, evil lurks around every corner, hiding in plain sight in amongst all the beauty. See your average Joe doesnt even notice it let alone acknowledge it, no they turn a blind eye. See this is why people like Vince Jones get away with as much as they do. People look in the opposite direction, avoid confrontation at all costs, meanwhile the evil just grows bigger and bigger. See Vince Jones is one of those very evils, he takes what he wants and to hell with anyone who gets in his way. I must stop him Jade, I cant stand by and watch as he grows bigger and more powerful, I have to make a stand and at the very least try to stop him before it gets out of hand.
Jade: Try? I get the feeling you have your doubts?
Freeman: Not going to lie Jade, this is going to be the battle of my life, it is going to be the defining moment in my career and god forbid I should fall short of winning. Im under no false illusions, there is a chance it will be me put into the back of an ambulance. Vince is cold hearted and unforgiving, he is violence itself, but I am not going to bow down before him. I am going to stand toe to toe with him, I am going to exhange blow after blow after blow till one of us can no longer move.
Jade: So its not a lack of confidence then?
Freeman: Not at all not one bit, I am just not going to make the mistake of under estimating him. I will give this fight every last drop of my very being and I will have no regrets win or lose. It all ends next Sunday Jade, this war that me and Vinny have been fighting will come to a close and when the dust settles I will know in my heart of hearts I gave it everything I had.
Jade: Your going to win! I know it sweetie, I feel it in my heart! Your passion, your intensity, your dedication to the business, Vince doesnt have any of that! He is just a thug, he only cares about status and hurting people.
Freeman and Jade hug and share another passionate kiss as the scene fades out as Freeman and Jade go back to staring out across the city.
6pm
Somewhere in NYC
The scene opens up in a beaten up old street of houses in New York City. Half of the houses are boarded up and grafiti lines the walls on every house. The camera pans round as Fraser Freeman’s last NYC broadcast to the UWA Universe begins to air. Fraser Freeman is walking down this street and suddenly stops as the camera focuses in on him.
Here we are folks, my last port of call in NYC. This very street is a representation of where Vince Jones grew up. See my journey here in New York has all been about finding out more about Vince Jones, finding out what makes him tick. If I am honest I havent really found out anything that vastly changes my perceptions of the man, in fact my journey has simply cemented them.
There is a tone of calm in the voice of Fraser Freeman, he is cool and collected as he is addressing the UWA universe. There is a deep steely determination in his eyes and he looks like he means business.
See Vince Jones grew up in a rough neighbourhood, In a street much like the one I stand in right now, hell it may have even been this very street for all I know. He grew up hand to mouth and turned to crime at an early age to put food on the table, using what smarts he has and his sheer physical presence to pull himself out the gutter. Later in life he turned to street Fighting where he once more used his physical stature to get what he craves most. Money and status! See it is obvious that is all Vince Jones has always been about, his reputation and having more money than the next guy.
Each word spoke with conviction and passion. It is as if Freeman is a preacher delivering a passionate sermon to his fellow followers.
Today I have found out a lot about Vince, hell some of it even made me doubt if I can win our war at raising hell. But then it dawned on me, Vince doesn’t have the sheer grit and determination to beat me! He doesn’t have the dogged will power and commitment to the cause that would be required to beat me. See this war only ends one way and that is with the victor incapacitating his opponent to the point where he needs a ride to the local ER. There is no way in hell Vince Jones can outlast the onslaught I am going to throw at him to get me to that point!
Theres a wide confident smirk etched of Freemans face as he shakes his head from side to side. We havent seen this level of confidence from Double F for a very long time.
See I am a fighter, a battler I allays have been and I always will be. See Vince and I actually have something in common and it is that very thing that shows how much we are polar opposites. I too didn’t have the best start in life, I too grew up in a deprived area, no food on the table most nights. Going day to day not knowing if I would even have a roof over my head in a months time, as my mother worked three jobs and most the time it barely payed for rent and bills. See Vince the thing that makes up opposites is you always take the easy option, the option that achieves the goal at hand in the quickest fashion. You began using your intelligence and physical stature to provide for your family by turning to a life of crime, taking what you wanted when you wanted it. You didn’t work hard for it Vince you stole it. Then there is your time as a street fighter, I have talked to people who have seen you fight Vince, your a typical slugger, you go in swinging, using your size and strength to overwhelm your adversary once more taking the easy option!
Freeman rolls his eyes in disgust and can be heard tuting out loud. It is clear as he delivers his passionate speech that to him Vince is nothing more than a chancer.
See Vince all my life unlike you I have done things the right way. I got me and my family out of poverty through hard work and dedication, I used my intelligence to gain a good education, I got education grants and I started working any job I could get at 13 years old on top of all my studies. Then there is my wrestling career, I have toed the line, I have done everything the right way, I have respected my peers and have championed the code of honour that this proud industry use to be known for. I have faced obstacle after obstacle and never once have I taken the easy option, never once have I stooped as low as to steal a victory or use illegal means to win. Then there’s you, your no stranger to that are you Vince? That title you have around your waist is proof of that isn’t it! See you stole it, you snook in and stole it right from under the nose of Kyle Travis after he did all the work didn’t you!
Freeman points at the screen and shakes his head from side to side in disgust at the under handed tactics Vince has willingly deployed in his time in UWA.
See it has all became very clear in my minds eye today Vince, I need not worry about you stealing another victory, I need not worry about falling short at the final hurdle. See Vince the harsh reality is you have already defeated yourself. Your whole entire life you have took the easy route, you have always put in the least effort you could and so far got the job done. But that is going to end at Raising Hell Vince. The man that will be stood before you like a rabid dog waiting for his prey will be me. A man who ALLWAYS pushes himself to the limit in EVERYTHING he does. See there is no easy route for your to take at Raising Hell Vince, there is no back-door escape. What awaits you at Raising hell is the fight of your life and you Sir are not going to know what has hit you when that bell rings. Every time you think you have me, I will bounce right back hitting you with all I have, whilst there is breath in my lungs I will continue to hunt you down like the dog you are.
Freeman is breathing heavy, the blood coursing through his veins. Each word was spoken with a level of passion and intensity that has literally taken his breath away. He takes a few deep breaths to steady himself before returning to his more calm demeanour of before.
There is an old saying that through out time has been said a million times Vince. “A leopard never changes its spots” and for the most part it rings true. With that in mind Vince you will go to the same A game you always do, you will look for the easy route, you will search for that quick escape. But what happens when you cant find an easy route? What happens when there is no quick escape? Let me tell you exactly what happens Vince, you become like a deer caught in headlights, startled and shocked, stunned and unaware of what is going on around you. When that light glares in your eyes Vince it will all be too late, the game will already be over, you will have hit your final Free-Fall and you will be getting stuffed into the back of an ambulance.
Once more there is a confident smirk firmly etched on the Freeman’s face. He has absolute belief that he will be the man standing tall as the victor and that is very very evident in his demeanour.
Polish that belt up real nice Vince, revel in every moment you have with it, because your reign is on borrowed time, the clock is ticking down to zero and whit the last second ticks away on Sunday your reign of terror will be over!
Freeman raises his left hand up slowly like a plane rising up through the sky, only to bring it back down and making a whistling noise followed by a big boom. This is to signify that Vince Jones's Free-Fall is imminent and there is nothing that can be done to stop it! The scene fades to black as Freeman walks down the street away from the camera.
