The Panther Arena is empty. The audience? Gone. The crew? Gone. The only thing that remains is a man sitting backwards in a folding chair where the AWE ring recently stood. The man, a black trench coat covering most of his body, has short brown hair and a brown beard filled with grey hair. Tired blue eyes stare into nothing out of dark circles. His body sways slightly in the chair, a soft unconscious rocking.
"I told you, Benny."
His voice is a whispered hoarse.
"I told you that the cost would be great. The cost would be steep. Severe."
He shakes his head slightly, still staring into nothing.
"You know...that's what Severin means. Old Scandinavian name that means severe. That's why we chose our name, man. Severe Chaos."
He pauses.
"Your pride, Benny. Your desperation for anyone in this company to give a damn about you? Win titles?"
He shakes his head.
"Its all over, man. No title shots for you. No glory. No...nothing..."
He smiles.
"Every time you get a chance at validation? I'll be there. Every chance you have at getting a title shot? I'll be there. In the event you, arguably the least successful wrestler this company has ever seen, is gifted a title shot? I'll be there."
He laughs.
"Remember...remember that time that Ashton got so pissed at us for interfering in his matches with Skeet that he jumped us? Had you listening to that "Every Time I Turn Around" tune? Man...Ashton's got nothin' on me."
He starts to laugh in earnest, large body moving up and down.
"See ya around."
"I told you, Benny."
His voice is a whispered hoarse.
"I told you that the cost would be great. The cost would be steep. Severe."
He shakes his head slightly, still staring into nothing.
"You know...that's what Severin means. Old Scandinavian name that means severe. That's why we chose our name, man. Severe Chaos."
