We begin with a shot of a cold hotel room in Quito, Ecuador. The sun is battling through the early morning clouds, the curtains drawn in the hotel fighting to keep it out. There's random noises outside the room but they're all background noise. The main noise in this hotel room is a repeat of a part of the Smashing Pumpkins' "Bullet With Butterfly Wings", the trademark hit by the man who now owns the NWA. Whether this nudge nudge wink wink audio cue is a bit of world's colliding or not, it repeats like a broken record.
"But can you fake it For just one more show?"
As our camera looks around the messy hotel room, clothes strewn about, hastily packed wrestling gear in bags on the floor and shoes laid by the beside. Suddenly our attention is drawn towards the night stand. There sitting on the night stand is a HP Pavilion laptop.
But can you fake it For just one more show?
The camera move on to get a closer look at the laptop, we can finally see what's on the laptop screen. There airing on its own would be Joey NOX vs Matthew Logan from Summerfest 2010. We're treated momentarily to some retro PRW action until the sound of something off-screen draws a quick jerk away from the laptop.
But can you fake it For just one more show?
There waltzing into the room is Joey NOX. The PRW Hall of Famer and self described insurance plan is brushing his hair, shirt off and workout compression shorts on. He looks tired and worn out, the elongated sigh from his lips selling that. With a noticeable wrap on his hand, Joey throws his brush down on the bed. Joey looks at the camera and pauses, the same part of the song looping as he takes in the early morning.
But can you fake it For just one more show?
NOX: It....is a fair question isn't it? Can I, the man PRW never wanted, fake it one more time. And why? To save the show. Because the ones they relied upon to carry the mantle are missing. Gone. Vanished.
But can you fake it For just one more show?
NOX: To some of you, this is my job. It's a duty I signed up for when I put my name on a contract and when PRW puts me in the hall of fame. I'm Mr. On Call. I'm the back up plan.....but do I want to be? And why me? Why does PRW never have a better option than to drag me out of the doldrums? Why do I always have to fake it----for just one more show.
This Ecuador trip is about personal business. A chance to team with my friend and see a brand new place for the first time. For some people that'd be enough of a task but for me? Nah. And why? Because I have to fake it....for just one more show. Because Ace has disappeared and because Ata seemingly can't be bothered? Who knows. All I know is that what started out as a trip to handle a personal matter with a close friend has now turned on to potentially one final trip into the abyss. One final run into a PRW main event. Ecuador is a personal matter, Washington is a business matter. Maybe I won't be needed.
Joey pauses and lets out a little sigh, his head shaking slightly. Grabbing his gear bag and looking it over, you can tell by his body language that Joey doesn't quite believe that. He opens it up and pulls out his boots from the bag, looking them over in the morning light while the same part of the song loops.
But can you fake it For just one more show?
NOX: Or maybe JUST maybe I'll be needed. And maybe just maybe I'll walk the aisle in the main event. And maybe JUST maybe I'll leave there with the title one more time; a truly improbable ending to a truly improbable weekend for a truly improbable career. Perhaps as the winter weather gets cold and we get closer to seeing a fat dude go down a chimney with gifts---there's still some magic left in the old hat that is Joey NOX. The PRW Undisputed championship would be one HELL of a gift, wouldn't it? It would be the final crowning achievement of my long career. That one LAST missing piece for a fake legacy I've been fake caring about for far too long now. One belt one more time to finally end all of the doubts in my own head, even the ones I really pretend I don't have.
And yet.....
NOX throws his boots down on the bed. He turns the camera and lets out a little chuckle.
NOX: And yet I still feel like this shouldn't be happening. I still wonder why. Why it's always gotta be me to ride in and do the deed. But you know what? Perhaps it's not my job to wonder why. Maybe it's my job to just do and die.
After all, if I don't do this shit, none of YOU fucking people are gonna do it.
And with that, NOX begins to empty out his gear bag filled with his equipment onto the hotel room bed.
