FADE IN:
INT. VOIDSTAR'S GYM - SIDE STORAGE ROOM - AFTERNOON
We cut to a shot of VOIDSTAR standing over a camera. He mutters to himself and the picture stutters. A button clicks and he stops talking, realising that it's recording. He sits and straightens his mask.
He slowly nods.
He smirks.
As he talks the door to the room opens from behind and TOM DAVIS walks into view.
Voidstar mumbles something incoherent and turns to him.
Voidstar's eyes narrow.
Voidstar slams his fist into the desk.
Voidstar laughs hysterically.
Voidstar shakes his head, then grins.
Voidstar's eyes narrow, annoyed by Tom's repeated input. He turns the camera to only face him.
He stands and grins
Voidstar smiles and leans forward, turning the camera off.

VOIDSTAR
Last week, I faced Dick Devereaux in a hardcore match.
I came up short.
I came up short.
He slowly nods.
VOIDSTAR (CONT'D)
I can admit when I've lost, and I won't even moan about him using low blows to get there.
But, and this is a big but, it was me and not Dick who remained standing at the end of the day.
He may have won the match, but he lost the day.
He may have won the match, but he lost the day.
He smirks.
VOIDSTAR (CONT'D)
This next show is an entirely different story though.
I'm facing a cage match. Three others idiots in the ring with me, prey trapped with the hunter.
It's going to be a war, a bloody battle, and it's going to be glorious!

TOM
Oh my God, you're recording, boss? I'm sorry, I didn't know!
Voidstar mumbles something incoherent and turns to him.
VOIDSTAR
Get out you insufferable fool, I need to talk about my match.
These idiots at Engage want a promo. Apparently just
hitting my opponents isn't enough anymore.
Tom stares blankly at him.These idiots at Engage want a promo. Apparently just

VOIDSTAR (CONT'D)
Go. Away.
Tom half turns away, but then changes his mind and instead steps further into the room.TOM
You mean that four way you're in? You, Walter Hobbs, Keegan Ryan and Christian Valentine?
VOIDSTAR
Yes, that one.
He turns back to the cameraVOIDSTAR (CONT'D)
(Muttered)
What else would I mean, idiot?
TOM
Oh man. I'm a huge Keegan Ryan fan! That dude has it all;
he's badass, he's a good all-rounder, he's violent as hell.

VOIDSTAR
Thank you for the commentary, jackass.
TOM
Not sure about Walter, though. Like, isn't he a bit old to just be starting?
And, I mean, he's just sort of...average.
I saw that one match he had before he signed here, dude won by luck, not skill.

And Christian? I mean he's big and strong and all, but he lacks any decent technique.
VOIDSTAR
(firmly)
Thank you, Tom, for your opinion. Not that I asked for it.
I think the idea is that I analyse my opponents, not the fucking personal trainer.

But since we're on the subject, please, Walter?
That guy is a joke. He has rocks in his head. Him and his dumb whore wife are both idiots.
He has no business being in the ring at all, let alone with me.

VOIDSTAR (CONT'D)
It's an insult to me, to my career. But it's okay. I'll be glad to knock him off of my list nice and early.
TOM
Your list?
VOIDSTAR
(nodding)
Yes. I have a list, and it names everyone here. One by one I'll knock names off until I've fought the entire roster.
So I scratch that loser Walter off now and save myself having to bother with him again last down the track.

And Keegan? I don't get it. A 13 year vet, and yet he lost to a chick? I mean...wow.
Okay, so he talked a fair game last week, sure. Dust settling, beaten the toughest of the tough, it's all very nice.
But then he went out there and achieved what? Nothing. He got gassed, flopped and got taken down.

VOIDSTAR (CONT'D)
And Christian? Come on, he's a walking injury waiting to happen.
Those knees will never last , not with his size. I can appreciate his brutal side,
but he's so slow that he'll never get near me. And, well, did you see his match?

He lost because he speared the ring post like an idiot.
Voidstar shakes his head, then grins.
TOM
Yea. He was too hasty, but not fast enough.
Voidstar's eyes narrow, annoyed by Tom's repeated input. He turns the camera to only face him.
VOIDSTAR
So, Engage. Cage match it is. I see the challenge, and I will rise to it.
Christian might say that cage matches are his favourite, but I'll show him that they're my domain.
And as for Keegan and the fuck up Walter, they're out of their depth, plain and simple.
He stands and grins
VOIDSTAR
And when I win, when I defeat those three other imbeciles,
you'd better be ready for me, Dick. Because I'm coming back after you once
this...formality is done with!
