My Thanks To The Corporation
Backstory: This promo airs after The Ace capitalises on his chance to get even with Tyler Jacobs who manipulated Tanya Byrd away from him, it is a classic break away in some aspects to the typical Super Face and demonstrates perhaps his earliest hint of humanity as he seeks to come to terms with that fact
JM: Last night's Mayhem was pretty damn cool...especially with The Ace standing tall over Tyler Jacobs...
Lawson: I don't get it JM, is The Ace being rewarded for attacking that innocent man? He's being given the night off from competing at Worldwide?
JM: Maybe Robert Kennedy now sees The Ace as the single biggest threat to the corporation, seemingly having got his head straight after months of emotional torment, maybe Robert Kennedy figures it'll be one less threat to deal with come Worldwide? And Gary, Tyler's anything but innocent, manipulating that poor girl into thinking this is all The Ace's fault, I believe T-Bird and The Ace at one time truly did love each other, but Tyler ruined it...
Lawson: Oh come on JM, The Ace didn't give T-Bird a second thought, Tyler was there for her...
JM: True The Ace does have his moments, but Tyler wasn't there for her, he took advantage of a weakened woman and besides maybe The Ace had no choice but to abandon her, he didn't know where she was, and was in no condition to fight after all those attacks, and further more an attempt was made to falsely arrest him and ultimately Tyler's psychology won her -
*Jim Moss is cut off as 'Ace Of Spades' by Motorhead hits and the crowd go nuts. As the lyrics kick in, huge flame pyros erupt either side of the ring signalling cards to fall from the rafters. The Ace steps out onto the stage, arms outstretched looking skyward, a dented and bloody steel chair in one hand, he twirls, laughing and continues walking down the ramp through the shower of falling cards...*
Lawson: Looks like a new entrance...
JM: I think this is a one off, look at the state of that chair from last night...
HF: Ladies and gentlemen, it is my pleasure at this time to introduce to you, please welcome, making his way down to the ring...from Birmingham, England...weighing 246 pounds...The Return of The Blonde Stallion...The One Man Revolution...THE ACE!
Lawson: Oh give me a break...
JM: Looks like The Ace has once again found his calling...
*The crowd are electric, seeing their hero embrace his glory once again...he slides into the ring, unfolds the steel chair and sits down on it, laughing...as his fans bask in the glory...the music fades as The Ace is handed a microphone, sitting in the middle of the ring...*
FINALLY THE ACE HAS COME BACK HOME...
*The crowd ecstatic*
NOW TRULY...THE ACE *crowd join in* IS IN THE PLACE!
*Crowd are deafening....*
Now it has been said...that credit should be given where credit is due...and tonight...tonight...I'm going to do just that...
*Crowd die down, clearly intrigued*
That's right...last night...you beared witness to the return...the rebirth...the rejuvenation of a once great man...and no...Samrock, I'm not talking about you son, I'm talking about THE ACE...THE REAL ACE...THE BLONDE STALLION...WOMAN STEALING...PIDDLY ASS KICKING SON OF A GUN!
*Crowd cheer*
Lawson: Woman stealing...ha...last I checked T-Bird was stolen from him!
First of all...I'll have you guys know that none of this would have been possible if it wasn't for one man...but before I get to that...I'd like to extend a personal get well soon to my former tag team partner...Cosmo...see I know you may not see it like this, but if you're watching, your breakdown was a blessing in disguise, I handed in the tag titles because quite frankly right now...you're one chain I could do without...and don't get mad because I know if the situation was reversed, you'd do the exact same thing...
*Mixed reaction*
...and I'll admit...for a while there it seemed like we would both be partners in the looney bin...but for that I extend a personal thanks to one select group of piddly asses...my thanks to The Corporation...
JM: What?
Lawson: Has Ace finally realised their greatness?
See, if it hadn't been for all those cowardly sneak attacks and fractured ribs, busted, bruised, broken and bleeding, the wake up call I needed...I would be banged up in a padded cell alongside Cosmo...torturing myself, crying myself to sleep over T-Bird and Ruth...mainly T-Bird, I'll admit...but The Corporation made me realise, love is a disease, it eats away at you until there's nothing left and each day you suffer it, you grow weak, lose it all, until one day you are no better than your own reflection in the mirror...
*Mixed reaction*
JM: The Ace must be hurting pretty bad emotionally...
Each time you suffer it, its a new viral strain, completely different, unique, but the same crippling effects occur eventually, I, like many of you, at one time thought it was incurable, and I was unlucky to suffer two infections within a very short space of time...before one man showed me a more or less a permanant cure and more to the point, a way to keep the casual agent - women - in check...
*Mixed reaction*
Now I have a well documented weakness, I succumb as easily to women as they do to me, its a gift and a curse, but one I'd rather live with than live without...and thankfully...I can live with it whilst being at minimum risk of ever contracting the disease again myself...and I'm going to share the cure with the world because that's the kind of guy I am...ready? Listen up kids...
JM: I'm sure The Ace doesn't mean any of this, emotionally and physically he's been through a very rough time lately, damn Tyler!
The secret - plain and simple - I've come to realise is...women are made purely and simply to fulfill the male desire, the male fantasy, and they can be easily manipulated, moulded, shaped, crafted and played with...think of clay...or my personal favourite...a deck of cards...don't isolate yourself to one, play with the whole deck, and if you lose one card, don't weep, there's plenty more cards in the deck...
*Mixed reaction*
And the man who made me realise who I always was, who I have always been and who I will always be...The Blonde Stallion...the pinnacle of female desire...that man is Tyler Jacobs...
*The crowd clearly boo the name*
Now don't get me wrong, all of a sudden, we are not bosom buddies, I still hate you and your pals, but you released me from the final chain minimising my full potential - that chain is T-Bird - and I thank you for setting me free...
JM: That is ridiculous...
Lawson: It makes perfect sense to me!
That's right, Tanya, sweetie, once upon a time I did love you, I won't deny that, you loved me for the man you knew I was, but then Tyler started to play mind games and you lost it, you became a parasite, feeding off blood, but it wasn't your own, oh no, I realised it was mine...
*Mixed reaction*
You probably started hearing those voices again, telling you who was right and who was wrong, oh yes, surprised are you that I remember you telling me about all the psychological problems you had accepting Chris' death? I thought I had brought you back from that world, our love had restored some balance to both our lives, but then you showed me you didn't have as much trust in me as I had in you...you chose to believe his pack of lies...truly the snake of temptation...I told you I would never hit you, I confessed to you - and the entire world that I was a changed man because of you, I was willing to lead a normal life, grow old together, get married, all those things we had discussed, all those years of things I always wanted...but then I realised change isn't always a good thing, sometimes things are best left unchanged, there's a saying, the more things change, the more they stay the same...and I'm much better off loving nobody than loving somebody who doesn't trust me enough to know I would never harm a hair on those who I truly love...
JM: This is a sad story...I wonder what T-Bird makes of all this?
I admitted to the world, I was human, I made mistakes, I bled, I feared, but all those things are irrelevant now I guess, you can't trust in me, you can't believe or have any faith in me, so don't come crying to me when you realise the truth behind your 'fresh air'...when you see the uneditted version of what happened between us and what really happened between me and Sarah Dawkins...you want 'fresh air' honey, go buy a Air Wick Plug-In, because the only air he's feeding you stinks of bullshit...
*Crowd Cheer*
I guess it wont matter now...you've made your decision, perhaps he can give you things I can't, you threw me back into the life I so desperately wanted to escape...the strippers, the clubs, the women, the sex, I would have given it all up for you, if I knew I could return to the safety of your arms, the warmth of your kiss, the strength of your embrace...
*Crowd boo and begin chanting 'Tyler's bitch!' at T-Bird...*
But I guess bitches belong together...the bird is born free...the stallion born to run wild through the country, we are just two different animals, I - the leopard that never changes its spots - and you - the bird caught in the jaws of a venomous reptile...the laws of nature I guess...ah well...life goes on...
*'Ace Of Spades' by Motorhead hits as The Ace grins and is tossed a beer to his free hand, almost sensing a piddly ass on his way out to respond, but at least this time he was armed, a steel chair and even an empty beer can could prove formidable weapons should someone try to slow his recovery...but for now...he was content to just sit, crack open a beer and wait for his chance to return to glory...and the fans loved it...their hero born again...the phoenix from the ashes...*
