Reggie Estrada · (07-01-2023)

[We open up to a montage of Reggie’s exploits since 2016 all the way up to his time in current day XWF. Then we see him being involved with the whole Madness Gemini thing with T and JB, then it cuts to his reigns as an X-Treme Champion including his match against Alias at the Snowjob 2021 show, then it smash cuts to a black and white hue where we see a silhouette of a ladder inside a empty warehouse, as it shows clips of various ladder matches that this company was involved with. Then we see Reggie walking towards the ladder itself, which hangs a makeshift like LOF briefcase above it as he looks up into it.]

“This is the briefcase of dreams, a once in a moment thing that everyone in this company strives for in order to get themselves head of the pack. A briefcase to determine one’s own destiny in becoming a champion, a briefcase that will determine your own standing within the company's walls of relevance. As I look into that ceiling where that briefcase is, I think of all the times I had been wanting to reach for the skies, and go beyond where I can go.

What it all comes down to is this fact, not everyone can become a champion… not everyone can reach for the skies beyond. Everyone in life has to have a stop gap between where they can be in or become at. I know for me, all my life I had to fight to survive as an immigrant orphaned child, a man like me never thought it would be possible to get out of the slums of San Diego to make something of myself. If it wasn’t for JB putting me back on this shit, I wouldn’t even think about seeing my names on the cards of any kind, just another number with a jumpsuit on with no direction but life or death.”

[Then it shows montages of people climbing up on top of something, and falling off over and over. Then we see clips of people trying to climb over fences, and getting shot down by guns and various violent imagery of one trying to cross an invisible borders, then we see Reggie climbing up the ladder that was ten feet tall, as he was trying to reach for the case, it kept moving up and up like if it don’t want to be touched. Then he sits on the ladder to speak for a moment.]

“Guess that’s a sign that I shouldn’t be able to reach for the skies, well that’s a load of horse shit to the tenth degree, it’s obvious that I need to be qualified for the chance to get the shit. I had memories of being in a stipulation like this, and to tell you the truth it hurts that I couldn’t get the briefcase of LoF in order to get me a title shot of my choosing. Do I still feel it? Hell yeah I do, that is the one thing that keeps me up at night, and that makes me feel like less of a person or as a wrestler.

Now, I have to deal with three other wrestlers who also want to be able to have a spot in this Leap of Faith match, can’t blame them, they are the ones who pretty much are what I like to call the El Goldios of XWF. The three people who I already know have an easy access to this Leap of Faith match before I could even say it, the ones who I have pretty much most respect for outside of the ring, but inside of it is another story to say the least.

Not to say i'm gonna kiss their culos and have them run around my mind like Speedy Gonzlaes, they still are pretty much my enemy in order to secure my spot in this whole Leap Of Faith match entirely. The only thing I have hate for each of them is simply they already have the adulation, the title history longer than my own rap sheets, and that sense of “i’m betta than U'' like mindstate they secretly carry like how they tried to carry Charles Nickles’s reign as a TV Champion back in the day, which amounted to something lesser of a thing that someone should vye to obtain. As you can tell I still hate that gringo Charles for all the dirt he did on me, but fuck it I got another no good bastard I need to fry up.”

[Then the lights go out in the warehouse, then about ten seconds later it comes back on to see three opponents in the LoF match all sitting on ladders. We see one person sitting on the ladder reading a book, another one playing with a doll, and one stumbling to get on a ladder without breaking their neck by the way he’s climbing it. Then Reggie walks around the area to see all three of his opponents, he then focuses on the reading guy.]

“Hey there Dionysus, I hope you are reading how to get back your TV title, because it’s a damn shame you lost that shit to some stereotypical Regina Geroge like chick who fleeced you out of third fall, which YOU made sure to happen with that vote. I don’t know about you, but I guess you can’t round robin yourself out of being qualified into this Leap Of faith, at least you know it’s strictly one fall to the finish.

Or maybe you don’t know, and want to play victim of being played out your reign. I know you still got some heat left in you to think about going to Leap Of Faith, and I want that to shine like a dragon inside that epic stash of yours mi amigo. Ojo y Ojo is what I’d say to you, and I know full well you will stop at nothing to be apart of Leap Of Faith, but sorry to tell you that it isn’t going to happen under my watch. no te mereces esa oportunidad!”

[Then he shoves the ladder of a Dion like person crashing into a pile of papers of literature. Then he focuses his attention on the doll playing woman, then he crumbles up some piece of paper from the ground and tosses it at her to get his attention off the doll.]

“Hey you, yes you chica Myst… I heard so much about you, I can’t be surprised to see you out here like this. I know that you and that Chaos person were a thing, and even T told me that he wanted to “play house” with you when you were in the market. But that's shitty you decided to not want to “play house” with him, so now I got to make an effort to show you how not to cross those lines.

I know that you wanted to be off from the hustle, so you can focus on being a better person and all that. Pero sé que tienes miedo de la competencia, ¿te fuiste con la cola fuera del culo?... guess the jury is still out on that one. Anyways Myst, you know that you are better than everyone else in this match, hell you were once a Shooting Star Champion before they took out that division.

Even with all that, you know full well you won’t get a shot at Leap Of Faith… so go back to the Barbie horse you rode in on, or in this case go back to hiding in the shadows because I know that you don’t want no smoke against me.”

[Reggie then shoves the ladder where a Myst like person falls into a “Vat Of Acid” (really a pool of green juice, where she splashes around in angrily as she was looking for her doll. Then he looked at Sandman esque Bastard who was just standing on the rungs of the ladder like a drunken idiot, trying to drink his beer. Reggie looks on with disgust as he talks to him.]

“One half The No Good Bastards trying to get on a ladder? What a fucking time to be alive is what I will say about that, and look I know your partner is going up against King of the Gorillaz Ned in some fourth of july shit, so I know you are probably drinking away your sadness that you can’t be teamin up with him. I’d drink to that as well if I was in that position… but do you really want to do that?

Eso ya lo sé, y seguirás bebiendo como un pez hasta que te desmayes como un idiota que eres. You might not know what i’m sayin, but you can translate it on your phone, or your can of beer you just wasted in the past ten seconds. Knuckles, I know you are the money hungry, supreme douche nugget, overall and Westbound and Up type of guy that everyone loves to hate.

I’d rather take a drink with you, then fight you, because I already know it’s going to be a shit show before the bell rings. But at least you have two other people who can vye for beating the breaks off your neck. Because, I don’t think you need to be the Leap Of Faith, not as a spite but knowing that you're better off flotando como un hombre privilegiado blanco que no puede hacer nada malo.”

[Then he simply lets the Knuckles person do the No Mercy ladder drop into broken glass, as Reggie looked on in disappointment. Then he looked at all three of his makeshift opponents, then walked away from them. He then looked into the camera to share his final thoughts.]

“It’s all for jokes i’d say, but the reality will soon come out that I will come out this thing to be qualified in this Leap Of Faith match, but I also have to be realistic with myself in knowing that one of us will come out to win it to be a part of the match. With Dion’s brains, Myst’s beauty, and Knux’s own brawn there's going to be a whole lot of issues in the mix of things for me to overcome in this match.

Sé que no podré superar a tres de estas personas, pero sé que me aseguraré de trabajar duro para ganar la oportunidad. Incluso si uno de ustedes tres logra calificar, seguiré jodiendo a cualquiera sin Salto de fe.”

[Then it simply fades into static, then it abruptly cuts off.]
