Back at the cabin. Stallion and Joe stand in the living room as Green Man walks out of the bedroom seeing that he remembered where he left the Hardcore title. He walks out with the title on his shoulder. He walks through the living room, a man on a mission. He walks up to the door. By the door is a steel chair that he bought a few years ago in a some two bit federation. It’s a long story that doesn’t need to be shared. It’s a steel chair that folds up and is airbrushed blue with then Green Man’s logo on the seat part of it.
Green Man opens the door. Stallion starts to make his way to the door when Green Man turns around and holds his hand up.
“I got this one.” he simply says as he walks out on his front porch.
Once on the front porch Green Man walks up to the railing. He takes the Hardcore title which has finally saw the day of light and sets it on the railing. Green Man then sets the steel chair up against the post. He starts to pace back and forth on the porch with his hands clasp. He eyes fixed on the porch surface.
“Kermit the frog. I have to hand it to you Scavenger. That is the first time anyone has said I got my name from a frog. But I fail to see the connection. And I also have to hand it to you by bring up the song by Type O Negative. Green Man. And yes it is a good song. A song that I like. I love the album October Rust by the way. Red Water and Haunted being my favorite songs on the CD. But, just like Kermit, I fail to see the connection.”
Green Man pauses. He stops and looks at the Hardcore title. As much as he would love to get rid of the Hardcore title Scavenger just isn’t the right person to hand it over.
“I find it funny that you suggested that I picked out my name from a song....(Green Man pauses)..a song that came out when I was in my. twenty second professional year! I have been wrestling by the name of Green Man since 1979, And I don’t even think Peter Steele and crew haven’t even formed Carnivore! So to have you say that I picked out my name from a song back in seventy nine that didn’t come out till ninety six is nonsense. You want the truth Scavenger. My name is Ted Madigan. Okay? Happy now.”
Green Man begins to pace back and forth again.
“But I got thinking about that song. It starts out by the sounds of a shovel moving some dirt to which you mentioned how you plan on burying me. Then you mention how you’ll play the song at my funeral which the song has to do with death. But I see you totally lost the meaning of the song after that. It was clear. You have no idea what the song means. And I do kinda hold this song as a theme song of mine. It does kinda fit me. Spring won’t come. The need to strife to struggle to be freed from the hard ground.”
Green Man stops pacing.
“Kinda makes sense as I struggle to climb to the top of the XWA but is held back the Hardcore division which is also known to have hard grounds at times with street fights and what not. Cast shadows of doubt on my face. Hell everyone does that when they step in the ring with me. They doubt the fact that I will win. Winter’s breath of filthy snow befrosted paths to the unknown. My path to become the XWA World Champion. It’s unknown what lays ahead of me. Life is coming to an end so says me, me wiccan friend. Nature comes full circle. The final lines of the song. Life comes full circle. It’s born, it’s lived and then it dies. But it is born all over again. To start the cycle all over again. I live that week to week. Xtreme Warfare I die at the end of the night as a match has come and passed. But I am reborn as a new match lays ahead of me the following week. The week comes full circle. The month comes full circle and the year comes full circle. What happened last week has no effect on this week. It’s anew week. A new match. It has been born and it shall die and so shall we. Reborn. I am the best at that. I have retired how many times but only to come back. I can’t stay away. It calls for me. This is what I am meant to do. This is my life. I am Green Man. And those chants at the end of the song, Those Scavenger aren’t Gregorian chants. But Pete saying smoke pot, grow pot, love pot. Clean the wax out of your ears.”
Green Man walks back over to the Hardcore title.
“Enough about Type O Negative seeing that they have nothing to do with wrestling and our match. Lets talk about this.”
Green Man taps his hand on the Hardcore title.
“You Scavenger have a warped sense of humor. The Hardcore title is a spring board to the top? It’s a spring board to Hammer and Bright and Eternity and so on? What the fuck are you smoking? This title is a spring board to no where. You’ll end up in no man’s land. Which is a great place if it is the movie but were talking about the XWA so that place sucks ass. Look what happened to me. I won the title and fought Double Trouble several times. Man I tell you it got me far. Where is good old Double Trouble anyways? Where else did it get? Oh yeah it got me to have some form of a feud with that copy cat Vindicator. I trued to beat it into him on what to do but I guess he just didn't get the message. It was only when I stop lugging this piece of crap around did I start making any head way in the XWA. Finals of the North American title and almost had the World Title shot in my hands. You want this title? Come and get it. I really don’t care about it. But I won’t just hand it over and run away in fear because Anarchy Inc showed you the truth. That is just silly. Is the Truth that Anarchy Inc showed you the same Truth that is funded by cigarette companies that is about to get sued for blasting the very people that funded them the money to make those stupid annoying commercials? If it is, I feel sorry for you. No ones cares about what you have to say and no one cares about Anarchy Inc Scavenger. Want to talk about names? We should talk about yours. Scavenger? A bum who scavenges for trash and everyone else's left over?”
Green Man looks down at the title. He chuckles.
“Yup. That name fits you pretty good as a matter of fact because only you want this. And don’t worry Scavenger. I’ll have a chair for you on Warfare. One that I have had for a long time. It’s kinda heavy and hurts like hell. Don’t worry you meet it and you’ll get to know it very well. And all this talk about burning rage and boiling water is a pile of crap. Just drop the act Scavenger. When Warfare rolls around. You won’t be ripping my head off like you wish you could. In fact Scavenger. I’ll be taking you to school. Class is open and Green Man is going to hand you a beating that you have never had yet. I’ll show you why I am the Hardcore Champion. You learn why I swing a big chair and make people bleed in the ring or backstage. You will know first hand why I am the original baddest mother fucker in the world. You will know why I have a following as far as the eye can see across the world. Weapons or no weapons. Your going down. Mark my words. Write it down and remember it. When you sitting in your fescues wondering when you’ll get your beloved wiener dog while your jerking off when the match is all said and done, it will come back to you. You will remember the day when I told you that I will walk out of that ring with my hand raised in victory. I will still be the Hardcore Champion after Tuesday. You can take that to the bank.”
Green Man picks up the hardcore title. a rare sight.
“In what world Scavenger, can you beat me? Not in this one I can tell you.”
Green Man smirks and turns to walk back in the cabin as the scene fades to black..............................
