(The scene opens up and were inside RYŌGOKU KOKUGIKAN arena with the ring all set up for the Union Battleground show this Sunday. Ringside seats are all set up and we see Anton Chase sitting in one of the fold-out metal chairs. Anton is wearing some blue jeans and a short-sleeve black t-shirt)
"Last week at the relapse show I went toe-to-toe with the Trench War Champion Emery Layton for the Trench War championship. And when the bell was rung she thought I would walk into the match with all the same game plan but I changed the game, like I always do. I gave Emery Layton the fight for her life. She couldn't compose herself the minute that bell rang. I had the entire match won when who would get involved. Dolan Farson would get involved in my business. He would cost me the chance to become the Trench War Champion with his client who was wearing a damn masked like a coward and that is something I don't forgive."
(Anton pauses)
"I don't care about what you do Dolan but when it involves me then I do care. I care a whole lot in fact after that appearance you made at Relapse and costing me my chance you've now got my attention. You have my attention Dolan which in time will be bad for you and whatever plans you have. You say it wasn't personal. But it was personal. That Trench War championship was personal to me and to add it to my accomplishments would have been a dream come true. But you ruined that for me, I take that very personal. And I know I've got a tag team match coming up but I'll be looking for you. "
(Anton frowns)
"Japan one of my most favourite countries in the world and it's always a pleasure coming here. This week I get to entertain the Japanese in a tag team match and my partner is Axton Pierce. And we are against Muramasa and Kokka and in all honesty I don't know who they are. And with the way my mood has been since relapse it doesn't matter who they are. I'm going through these two with absolutely one goal and that is to hurt them. I'm going to hurt them that Dolan Farson and his masked bitch would feel how hurt my opponents are."
(Anton smirks)
"It's funny Dolan Farson because I guess you don't realise who I am. I'm a veteran of the game and I know all the tricks. But one thing I also know is revenge. Revenge will be sweet and revenge will be mine once I get a hold of you but until then Muramasa and Kokka will have to do."
(Anton pauses)
"Axton Pierce you and I are to team with one another and I'm okay with that, you had a great match with Jay Rayburn at Relapse but Axton don't get in my way. "

FEBRUARY 4, 2018
RYŌGOKU KOKUGIKAN
TOKYO, JAPAN
CAMERA: ON
WE BEGIN OUTSIDE OF THE INDOOR SPORTING ARENA WITH AXTON PIERCE STANDING IN FRONT OF IT. THE AIR IS COLD BUT THERE’S WARMTH IN PIERCE’S HEART AS A SMILE APPEARS ON HIS FACE.
AXTON PIERCE
The day of giving thanks is approximately 291 days away but Ladies and Gentlemen, Axy boy is feeling so fucking grateful! I’m grateful for the stars in the sky. I’m grateful for the birds that sing their morning song. I’m grateful for the Sukiyaki that is in my belly. But most importantly, I am grateful for you, Axel Graves! Yes, you! The man that has granted me the greatest wish of all! And for that I thank you.
HE PUTS HIS HANDS TOGETHER AND BOWS HIS HEAD.
I said before that I didn’t care what type of match I had just as long as I was able to get my hands on every member of MURAMASA-kokka and I don’t care that Sir Graves gave me two members instead of all of them. I don't care that he made the match a tag match with Anton Chase as my partner instead of a handicap match. Nope, don’t care one bit. I'm actually pretty happy about this, really am, mainly because Anton hates MURAMASA-kokka as much as I do. Now, now, I know what your thinking. Anton and I, we have got some history. He was my first match here at Battleground, I was his first straight edge loss… probably. Lot's of history there. But with all that history, comes a time where you gotta put that aside and become Allies and Kira Izumi and Jordan Rayburn are worth putting aside your differences for.
HE BREATHES IN THE FRIGID AIR.
Tokyo, Japan is the site of the crime. Just 15 hours from your stomping grounds, MURAMASA-kokka. I know that because I did the math and possibly used google for the answer but that's not important right now. What's important is the fact that I will have my chance at revenge at two of you. Kira Izumi. Jordan Rayburn. You two don't even know what's going to happen to you. Yet, I feel as if I should provide some sort of preview! Damn it! I was gonna point to my left and then the camera guy would move towards that direction and then there would be like a screen where I would show you my greatest work in the ring, but I was informed that “big enough” for that type of cue.
HE LOOKS DOWN AT THE GROUND WITH SORROW ON HIS FACE.
It’s sad really, when you think of it but I get it. It’s fine, I’m ok, I’m sure I will survive. So, instead of the highlight reel, you will get a powerful, detailed analysis of one of my favorite quotes.
HE CLEARS HIS THROAT BEFORE CONTINUING ON.
The great German philosopher, Friedrich Nietzsche once said, “Only great pain, the long, slow pain that takes its time... compels us to descend to our ultimate depths…” Now, I know you, Kira are smart enough to understand what that means but I'm more worried for Jordan here so, allow me to give you a more clear understanding. Long, drawn-out pain- whether physical or mental. Over time that pain can cause you to deteriorate and get worse. That pain, that pain. That's the pain I plan on delivering to you, MURAMASA-kokka. A pain that’ll haunt you, a pain that’ll make you wish that you would’ve never crossed me. And that, that goes for all of you. You, your mothers, your wives. Uncles, nephews, nieces. Their kids, the whole lot of you. Every. Single. One. Of. You.
AXTON TURNS TO LEAVE BUT A SLIGHT SMILE COMES UPON HIS FACE ONCE MORE AS HE CHOOSES TO STAY FOR ONE MORE THING.
Oh and Anton, Listen bud. I won’t get in your way, if you don’t get in mine. See you Friday!
