Mastermind's personal jet landed in Wellington, New Zealand, and he made his way through customs. All he could think about was getting back to Maria. December had not been a very good time for him in the XWF. Ever since winning the Superstar of the Month for November, things had turned pair shaped. He lost the X-Treme Title to Doctor Louis D'Ville, he then lost to Justin Sane, and he had returned from a loss against Ruben A. Mitchell.

All he thought about was Maria, and as he made his way into the waiting area, there she was, smiling, even though she knew he was on a losing streak. She was always supporting him. He made his way up to her. They hugged and he gave her a kiss.

MARIA: "I'm sorry about your loss to Ruben."

"It's okay, I'm over it now, I'm just glad that I am now back here in your company to spend XMAS with you before going back for the Television Shot."

MARIA: "Let's just get home."."

Maria went to walk away grabbing Mastermind's hand, but Mastermind held his ground, and yanked her back. She looked back.

MARIA: "What?."

Mastermind looked down at her and smile.

"I love you."

MARIA: "I love you too?"

"I know that I can't get you out of my mind, I know that you are my rock, and I know that I am crazy about you."

Maria smiled.

MARIA: "Like wise."

"I know that I can't continue wrestling without you by my side to help me get through my losses, to help me be strong, and to keep me level headed.."

Suddenly Maria became suspicious.

MARIA: "Where is this going."

Mastermind took something from his pocket, and got down on one knee. Maria looked shocked.

"I want you in my life. I want you to be with me. I want you to be involved in my wrestling career, I just want you to marry me. Will you marry me Maria?"

Maria looked around, and saw everyone watching her, they were waiting for her reply.

The camera fades in to the top of the Giant Center in Hersey, Pennsylvania, and it finds Mastermind looking out over the city.

"I should have taken a month off of active competition. My mind wasn't in it. I let myself down, and I let my opponents down, but that is where I will leave it. Hello XWF, I, the Master of Minds, is back. Did you miss me? Did you miss my t-shirts? I promise that 2015 is going to be my year. Where it takes me is anyone's guess. But I need to start with a win, and that starts tonight when I defeat Duncan B Deadly.

"Now I know you have been here for a couple of months, but what I don't care about is your win loss record. What I do care about is beating your sorry arse, and getting back on the winning track that I was on in November. The world is full of Duncan's, one less won't hurt.
Let's get this out of the way.

"Knock knock
Who's There?
Duncan
Duncan Who?
Duncan make your garden grow better!

"Knock Knock
Who's There?
Duncan
Duncan Who?
Duncan disorderly again!

"Knock Knock
Who's there!
Duncan!
Duncan who?
Duncan buscuits in your coffee!"

Mastermind smirks and turned towards the camera.

"I know pretty lame right? Just like you Duncan B Deadly. How Deadly are you? Not very deadly at all. Well Duncan it's time you find out who the true Master of Minds is here, and that's me. I am that Dam good, and I will prove it to you come Wednesday. I have arrived early, just to get focused.

"You better be focused Duncan. Other wise your loss is my gain."

Mastermind heads off camera.
