King Xavier arrived in Washington D.C. only hours after his victory at Fallout. He stood there as Breakout champion still and the hapless MJF still crying over his first defeat made the entire experience worth it. King Xavier enters Capital One Arena to a loud pop. The fans were loving him more each week. Once inside the door closes and it's very quiet. His shoes could be heard working the hard corridor to the ring. It was like he is the first to arrive which is never a bad thing. King Xavier's theme song hits as the Breakout champion walks through the curtain holding the title up with a smile. Capital One Arena was usually full by now but as he looked around the crowd that was present was very vocal. It did not stop him from walking down the ramp and into the ring. Xavier stood there before requesting a microphone. Once he had it in his hand the Breakout champion began to speak.
Fallout was special no one can deny that. We saw a new World Champion crowned and of course yours truly retaining his title. Edge and Orton showed why they are the best in the business. Fallout is over though my loyal subjects. King Xavier once again proved why I am the best in the breakout division. MJF has nothing to brag about. I gave him a royal beatdown that the man deserved. This week is a little different. I am competing against someone that has earned my respect. His father is a legend one of the absolute best to ever step in this ring. I am talking about Dominik Mysterio and his father the great Rey Mysterio. I love when father and son compete in the same business but let's look at the facts, Dominik. You are no Rey Mysterio but who is. I'm sure he is teaching you everything he knows in order to make you successful. It's time to take the training wheels off though son because the king demands it. I understand the whole thing can be overwhelming going against some of the best talents in the world but your daddy didn't let that stop him. Are you going to run and hide when things get rough or will you finally take a huge step toward being a man? I can't help your father catered to you growing up and didn't what it really means to be a man so let me tell you.
The crowd cheers as it has filled out more since he started. King Xavier speaks once more.
Dominik the first step to being a man is realizing that you have a problem. It's a problem that will never go away with you in the business now. The problem is that no matter what you do you're always compared to Rey Mysterio your dad. Is it fair to you? Probably not but guess what no one is going to care about the feelings. It may sound like I am being harsh but I understand what it feels like in a way. I didn't have anyone in this business. I learned everything on my own and I am not the biggest or smartest but I fight for what I want. That's what the king needs from you Dominik. We are going to have a match this week that most will remember. The second step Dominik is working on the in-ring stuff if you wish to be successful. Some people were gifted with this like yours truly and it's my duty to show everyone including you how it's done. I have noticed everyone on the roster responds to my challenges and I expect no different from you. You see Dominik focusing on the weaknesses of
He turns and looks toward the back just as Dominik and Rey are arriving at the arena where they see King Xavier in the ring.
Step three Dominik is understanding that King Xavier is superior and soon enough the Mysterios will have no choice but to bow down before me. It is the ultimate sign of respect and surely your father has told you that. What he forgot to mention though is that as you go through the journey of becoming a man you will be humbled and forced to deal with your inner demons. I'm not around you enough to know but I can tell Dominik wants to be the best. He wants to feel special and entitled because it's what your father has taught you. Dominik listen up as your king continues to speak. Your inner demon is failure and letting everyone you love down. I get it believe me but if you try the best, you can and it's not enough then so be it. You can't live in your father's shadow forever so win or lose tonight I am going to make you a deal.
The fans have a confused look not sure what is going on.
The very last thing I am going to teach you is gratitude. It is something that skipped a generation apparently young Dominik. You see I have the option of offering you something if you beat me. If you lose, however, depending on how impressed I am I'd be willing to offer you something you wouldn't refuse. You see Dominik at Fallout I proved once again that no one is on my level and worthy of a rematch without a little effort. I am a fan of offering opportunities to younger talent just ask MJF. So young Dominik if you are successful tonight and beat me in the middle of this ring, I will consider giving you a title opportunity.
The crowd gives off a huge pop at this announcement. He truly was a fighting champion.
However, if you slip up and are unsuccessful then your journey takes a wrong turn. This is the opportunity you have been seeking I'm sure and if not take it, young kid. Just imagine the headlines of becoming one of the youngest Breakout champions in EBWF history. Enough about that though because the king is not done speaking.
He moonwalks backward as he spins and entertains the crowd.
Dominik, you are a mystery to me that I can admit. Very little is known about you which drives me crazy. I am a man that NEEDS to know his opponent. I WANT that leverage on him because no one is what they seem like in the business. The fact you're a mystery though is something I love. It will drive me to figure it out as we compete later tonight. It will give me great justice to know that I defeated you the honest way. Never stop doing your homework because it could be the only time the opponent does more than you.
He takes a moment to himself. He closes his eyes holding the title high.
You see Dominik I am a nice guy. I truly want you to be successful since you're the future of this company. It's just won’t be against me. I am not going to sugarcoat things for you, Dominik. I want this victory over you because a veteran is supposed to lead by example. That is something your father taught me and it's my opportunity to return the favor and teach his little boy where he is on the totem pole of EBWF. Starting next week, you'll begin the climb but unfortunately, you've hit the road block in Xavier Woods.but there is no shame in losing to royalty. I've conquered everyone that this company expects. I want someone like you Dominik who can keep me on my toes and show mental toughness.
He rolls out of the ring as the crowd chants his name. Xavier stood near the entrance as he spoke one last time before heading backstage.
I am not one of these champions that don't care what you say outside the ring. I care about how you perform and if you can back up everything you've mentioned. It's not always easy Dominik but one thing about your father is he backed up what he said but tonight let's leave it all on the line. Put our bodies through hell and see who survives. Only the strong survive Dom and I've dealt with a lot and here I stand so I am a survivor.
He drops the microphone and walks backstage. It is chaos compared to just a little time again. He greeted people left and right as was the custom for a king. The scene fades away.
