As IWA kicked off, the crowd was shocked to see none other then Bruce Buffer standing in the center of the ring, and he stood in front of a mic stand and began to speak.

"I need you to hear this loud and clear
The line and the sand is drawn and I have no fear....When I see red all I need is a reason to set me off

To drop this bomb and pick yourself off the ground


Cause Im a badass
And you don't want to clash
Cause your mouth's writing checks that your face can't cash
Cause I'm a badass
And this warning's your last
Just cross my path and I'll drop you fast"


As his music rang throughout the arena the lights went dark and the fog machine began to fill the stage with a thick cloud of smoke as red and white strobe lights began to go off throughout the smoke. Thompson would allow the go to build up until the chorus of his entrance kicked in and exploded through the smoke in cue with the word 'badass'. He paused at the top of the ramp for a moment and smirked at everyone in attendance, he knew he was better then each and every one of them that was why he was one the stage and they all had meaningless jobs that gave them no kind of true fulfillment. Stephan would continue to remain at the top of the ramp, bouncing back and forth on his toes and rolling his shoulders for a few seconds before beating his chest with both hands and making his way down the ramp, careful to stay in the center of the ramp so that none of these drunks in attendance could touch him. He slid into the ring, and after making his way to his feet walked over to Bruce and slipped him an envelope that he pulled from his pocket. Bruce would nod at Thompson and after shaking hands, Bruce would exit the ring and head to his skybox. Thompson would remove the mic from the stand where Bruce had left in and raise it to his mouth as he looked out into the crowd and begin to speak."Ladies and gentlemen....take a moment to gaze at what perfection looks like. Because when you people sit at home and think of what the 'perfect' wrestler would be, chances are 9 times out of 10 you come up with someone a lot like me. And you wouldn't be wrong in feeling this way, I am everything someone would want in a poster boy for their federation. I mean I have it all, the looks...the natural athletic ability....and a mean streak that could wrap around the planet 10 times over!!!"The crowd begins to jeer at this newcomer, who was he to claim that he was what they wanted...they had no idea who this guy even was except for the fact that he clearly had enough money to pay Bruce Buffer to show up just to call him into an arena. Strikeforce welcomed these jeers as he knew that people were not so willing to accept the truth just because he had come out here and ran his mouth, so he continued to speak."Do you people really think I care if you boo me, I actually expect you to with the side show that wrestling has become as of late. Some of the people in the back seem to be to focused with climbing on scaffolds and coming to the ring in ridiculous outfits then coming out here and showing the world that they deserve to be here because of their ability inside the ring. And you idiots eat this s**t up just because all you see is people care about is watching two people trying to kill themselves for your entertainment. You people wouldn't know pure wrestling if it were standing in front of you waving a Big Mac and a forty!!!"Now the crowd was really booing Thompson, this guy was not only insulting their intelligence, but he was mocking the extreme aspect of professional wrestling...that is crossing a line. "You people need to realize that you are looking at the man who is raising the bar in IWA because there is not a man in the back who has what it takes to out wrestle me because I am a higher class of wrestler then anything any of you have ever seen before. You are looking at not only the future of IWA, but the future of this entire industry, and anyone in the back that has anything to say about it can bring their a** out here and be my first victim on my climb to the top!!"Strikeforce would then lower the mic and see who he was able to draw out of the back with the very arrogant statement that he just made
