The intro guitar riff of Shinedown's "Sound of Madness" begins playing over the Pa system. A few of Stone's hardcore fans clap along with the songs strong drumbeats.
"Yeah, I get it, you're an outcast
Always under attack, always coming in last
Bringing up the past, no one owes you anything.
I think you need a shotgun blast, a kick in the ass
So paranoid, watch your back!"
As the last few lyrics are sung, Stone emerges on the stage full of energy. He runs from one side of the stage to the other, garnishing a barrage of cheers from fans on each side. With a devious smile on his face, he makes his way down to the ring.
He slides under the bottom ropes as his means of entering the ring. Quickly jumping up to his feet. Its obvious he's not out here to compete at the moment as he dressed in a t-shirt, jeans, and sneakers. So, its to be assumed he was out here to speak. This notion confirmed when he calls for a Mic which is immediately brought to him, He signals for his music to be cut.
"How the hell is everyone here doing tonight?"
The crowd rings out in near unison with more cheers for Stone.
"Good, good. Now, I don't want to eat up a bunch of everyones time here. So I'm going to try and keep this short. You see, last week I had an epiphany. For those of you who aren't sure what that means....like me, I had to look it up in the dictionary earlier today to make sure I used the right word....It essentially means that "IT" finally hit me. "IT" in all reality being a few things. First off, it hit me that the reason Outlaw Inc nor Ayden showed up last week is because I am the most dominant of the four of us....And they were all to afraid I would outshine them."
The crowd has a mixed reaction here. Cockiness doesn't always pay off I guess. Either that, or there were a lot of Conley and Outlaw Inc fans here tonight.
"What, what are the boos for? I know it can't be from fans of those other guys. Seriously, how could they have fans? They don't even show up to wrestle! I mean, hell even when they were here....There performances were so lackluster....I was carrying the show."
The crowd remains at about fifty-fifty. Not exactly sure whether to appreciate his honesty, or hate his demeaning of their favored wrestlers.
"Really though, I'm not out here to ruffle any feathers. Not at this point in the night atleast. But I do have to give out some props. Those going to Bo...you mind if I call ya Bo?....Bo Williams. The guy who did step up and face me last week. I still feel kind of bad about that kick to the head, but hey...You backed me into a corner...What did you expect. But thank you for a good match. Everyone, a round of applause for the kid."
The crowd, agreeing with Stone that it was a good showing, for the most part go along with it and give the kid a round of applause.
So now lets move on to the second part of my epiphany. That being....the name 'Shawn'....is just to popular out here. I actually had a kid mistakenly call me Shawn Stages after the show the other night. Who the hell is Shawn Stages. And I'm always getting mistaken for Shawn Youngblood....Not that I look as butt ugly as that fool.....Just because I look like someone who should be carrying gold."
Stone places his back to the ropes. Relaxing a bit as he takes in the fans energy. The smile on his face only growing wider. He loved this. The energy here was so much more....appreciative.
"To keep things short...as I said I would in the beginning, I've decided to do a bit of a name change, You see, I realized....I am a Stone. I am the corner stone of this companies future. I am a rock hard foundation to build this very business upon. So, from here on out....I will simply be known as....The Stone. Yes, TheStone is a man among legends. A myth in the making. TheStone, yours truly.....Is a force....to be reckoned with."
With that, Stone drops his Mic. Allowing it to crash down to the ring mat. He poses for a moment as the audiences camera flashes go wild. Then, he quickly exits the ring. Backing up the ramp, he shouts...
"I'm TheStone.....and I am the corner stone of this company!"
All the while his smile never fading. His music hits again as he poses along the ramp and stage. Then, abruptly he disappears behind the curtain to the backstage area. Ending his promo....
