EARLIER TODAY...
Eli Buchanan is sitting in the back, reading a copy of Mary Shelley’s “Frankenstein”.
ELI BUCHANAN: I have love in me the likes of which you can scarcely imagine and rage the likes of which you would not believe. If I cannot satisfy the one, I will indulge the other.”
He sets the book aside and looks at the camera.
“July 29, 2017. Do you remember that date, A.J. Knight? I certainly do. Madison Square Garden, you and I met in a cage match at the very first “Fusion” event. I read this very passage from “Frankenstein” aloud in front of the whole world, having lost everything important in my life and having hit rock bottom, meanwhile you were skyrocketing your way up the mountain. I blamed you for everything that had happened to me, A.J. You were my Frankenstein monster and I was going to destroy you for what you had done to me, or make you finish me off once and for all.”
He sets the book aside and stands up.
“Look how much thigs have changed within the last fourteen months. Unlike Victor Frankenstein, I did not allow hatred for the monster I created to consume me. I dragged myself back out of that hole and regained everything that I thought was lost to me. See, A.J., I don’t hate any longer, in fact I take a certain amount of pride in watching the heights you’ve obtained. You have come so far since we first met and I’d like to think I had a hand in your success.
“But A.J., you’re not the only one that’s come a long way in the past fourteen month. While you were winning singles gold here in Seattle Pro and becoming World Champion in Lions Road, I’ll have been clawing and scratching my way back up the mountain! While people having singing your praises, I have been re-establishing myself as an athlete and proving to the world I don’t need a mask to succeed in this industry! While people having marking you as a top star, I have been proving to the world that if you’re smart with your money you always bet on red! More importantly though, while your career has taken a bit of a dip as of late, mine continues to rise. I am the winner of the 2018 Emerald City Classic; not only was that a tournament you were eliminated in the finals of, I beat the man who eliminated you, Ryan Henderson, in the tournament finals. I am guaranteed a World Title shot whenever I like, while you are trying everything you can not to end up at the bottom of the ladder, looking up at everything you lost.
“Tonight, I erase that loss to you last year. Tonight, I prove to the world that I am worthy of being a World Champion once more. And tonight I prove once and for all that this mad scientist is greater than the monster that he helped create.”
He picks up the book and opens it to a marked page.
‘“It is true, we shall be monsters, cut off from all the world; but on that account we shall be more attached to one another.’ A.J., this thing between you and I that’s lasted the past two year, tonight I finally put it to and I put you behind me once and for all.”
He tosses the book on his bag in the corner and walks out of the locker room.
