The arena lays silent. Everyone is waiting with baited breath for the next big UWF Superstar to make their presence known. Nobody could have predicted this though...
The iconic music of the old ECW begins to play and everyone turns their attention to the stage. Surely enough, out walks the former owner of the Philadelpha based promotion. There is no leather jacket, baseball cap or comically large cell phone. Instead, Heyman is dressed in a nice suit. He stands at the top of the stage and takes everything in. It's been a few months since we've seen him in the UWF. It seems as if he's back, for tonight at least. Heyman is prepared with a microphone already and waits for his music to stop before bringing the mic to his lips and beginning to speak.
Paul Heyman: Ladies and Gentlemen...my name is PAUL HEYMAN! And as some of you may already know, over the course of UWF history, I have been the advocate for many superstars. Some of these men were fortunate enough to become World Champions under my watch while others were not that fortunate. Most recently, I was the special council for The Tribal Cheif, Roman Reigns. Under my guidance, Roman Reigns found himself challenging for the most prestigious Championship in the business today. Sadly, Roman Reigns did not find success in his quest for Championship gold. And due to this, I was swiftly and unceremoniously ex-communicated from The Bloodline.
The fans boo Roman Reigns and the Superman punch heard around the world.
Paul Heyman: Truth be told, I wasn't upset with Roman Reigns. All good things must eventually come to an end. I still love Roman Reigns. But, needless to say, I was out of a job. And I was content with that. I have done everything I've wanted to do in this industry. So there I was sitting at home, when my phone rang. And on the other end of that phone was someone I haven't spoken to in over a decade. He said "Paul E, I've been thinking about a comeback. What do you say we get the band back together?"
Paul Heyman: You can imagine my surprise. Here I am, sitting on my couch watching reruns of "Curb Your Enthusiasm" and the offer of a lifetime just falls in my lap. So I jumped at it. So I'm back in a very big way! And I am not alone! My client is here tonight! And he is here to change the UWF for the better. No longer will mediocre will be acceptable. Good is not good enough with my client around. No longer will "Megastars", "Destroyers", "Dragons" or even "Tribal Chiefs" dictate the hierarchy around here. Instead, my client will rule with an iron fist. And it is only a matter of time before he is once again the Ultimate Wrestling Federation Heavyweight Champion of the world. Ladies and Gentlemen, I have kept you in suspense long enough. Please join me in welcoming back my client...
Heyman turns and points to the stage. A few moments go by where nothing happens. That is until...
Mauro Ranallo: What?!
"Sleeping Giant" begins playing and everyone's jaws drop. And in no time, out walks the former International and UWF Champion, "The Blueprint" Matt Morgan. Morgan is all smiles as he leaps in place before letting out a primal scream that causes flames to erupt from the stage.
As the fireworks cease, a smiling Heyman hands the microphone to Morgan, who motions for the music to be cut. Seems like we'll be hearing from the former Champion for the first time in a decade.
"The Blueprint" Matt Morgan: Do you know...who I am?
It's been a decade since we've heard those famous words.
Matt Morgan: For those who are unaware, allow me to introduce myself. I am "The Blueprint" Matt Morgan. Now, I know what you may be thinking. Why would someone call themselves "The Blueprint"? That name was given to me because it perfectly encompasses who and what I am. I am the perfect genetic specimen. Seven feet tall, Three-Hundred and Twenty-Six pounds of pure muscle. I am head and shoulders above everyone else. So much so that my genes were selected to be sent into space. So please know, "Blueprint" isn't just some moniker I came up with; it is exactly who I am.
Matt Morgan: But my greatness isn't just limited to my physical gifts. Inside that ring, I am undeniable. You don't believe me? Check your records. I am a former Ultimate Wrestling Federation World Champion. As a matter of fact, I am the first person in this company's history to unify the International Heavyweight Championship and the Ultimate Wrestling Federation Championship. I was without a shadow of the doubt, the Undisputed Champion. I was so dominant that they began calling me "Mount Morgan". And the only reason any of that ended, was because I wanted it to end. I was bored. I did everything I set out to do and there was no competition worthy enough to face me.
Matt Morgan: Flash forward to today. I was at home flipping through the channels and I came across UWF. And what I saw made me sick! If I thought the talent was lackluster in my day, I don't know what to call today's talent. I look around and I see Vikings. I see vanilla midgets. Your World Champion is a joke! And that's when I decided to call Paul. I told Paul E. that we could make a killing in today's industry. There's nobody here that can lace my boots. It's only a matter of time before I'm the Ultimate Wrestling Federation Champion again and Paul and I could make a lot of money in the process.
Matt Morgan: So I want the entire roster to consider this a warning. I'm coming for everything that I once had. And there's nobody on this roster that can stop me. Step up if you want, but UWF, prepare to drown...in my G.E.N.E pool!
And with that, Morgan tosses the mic as "Sleeping Giant" plays once more and he and Heyman walk off.
