**The segment opens backstage at PWA Reckoning. Akira Wyld is pacing back and forth in front a backstage monitor with his NWC Championship Belt over his shoulder. He turns and looks at the camera.**

WYLD: “You think you’ve achieved something here, Black? You think one battle wins the war? The Union is the strongest entity in professional wrestling, and what you saw out there tonight was just a bump in the road. Those men out there are WARRIORS! They have been through hell and back, fighting for what they believe in. Yeah they took a loss tonight… but that’s what happens sometimes when you give your body and your soul to this business night in and night out. That’s what happens when an UNFAIR promoter schedules his talent to compete on short notice without their consent! I saw the way that your PWA scabs were working out there tonight! Like a well oiled machine! Clearly they had been prepped about this match weeks in advance! This was all just a strategic hit job orchestrated by a power hungry sociopath!”

**Wyld paces back and forth and slaps his belt with his hand.**

WYLD: “Well that changes now. The Union lost a battle tonight but before this evening is out, we will win the war! In moments, I am going to step through that curtain and humble Damion Black in front of the world. I’m going to rip apart that shiny veneer and expose the dirty, raw truth beneath. I am the Surgical Specialist Akira Wyld. I am the Champion of Champions. And like a caged animal, I am the most dangerous when my back is to the wall. Get ready Black… because tonight is just the beginning of the hell I’m going to put you through!”

**Akira turns to meet his fellow Union members as the emerge from the arena and the camera cuts back to Gary Bloomfield.**
