"Damn sinners."

Dustin Shore is seen coming out of the back onto the stage, dressed in blue jeans and one of his old 'Your Hero' shirts, stopping and standing at the top of the stage. He puts his feet together, and as he hangs his head, he holds his arms out to the sides, as if he has been crucified. His head then comes up and looks around at the crowd, the fans of CWW. His arms fall back to his sides and he begins to walk down to the ring, focused forward and not acknowledging the crowd anymore. He climbs the steps into the ring, and goes and stands on the second rope in the corner, performing another crucifixion stance before getting down and grabbing a microphone from a ringside hand. He climbs and sits on top of the turnbuckle, feet propped on the second one. He looks around the crowd for a brief moment.

"You don't look particularly happy to see me," he says, as if he is doing nothing more than stating what the weather is. In reaction, the crowd gives him a chorus of boos for attacking Michael Chains. Dustin lets this go on for a few moments.

"The more things change, the more they stay the same. It's an old saying, but an accurate one. As I walked down that ramp, my music blaring, the spotlight on me, it was as if I'd never left. But everyone knows that I've been gone for many months. Many Pay-per-views and nights here on Monday Night War. I was content to sit back and watch for a while, but something kept calling me back. And you see, it was really odd for me because, unlike many of you I handle money well, and unlike most of you I have a college degree. And no, we aren't counting jokes like 'Liberal Arts'. So, with my financial future secure, I thought I could sit back and watch. But I saw what each and every one of you saw, a steady decline in the quality of our great Monday Night show. Demon received his attention as always, but he's not my issue at the moment, you all know what I have to say about him. No, this is about everyone else. This is about Michael Chains, oh yes. This is about Omega and this is about Criss Menace and this is about the CWW Champion Mark 'Razor' Jones. All I have to say is...that's it?"

*The crowd boos as Dustin puts down some of War's top superstars.*

"I remember when the CWW Championship used to mean something. I remember when it was the pinnacle of achievement in this company. I struggled, clawed and fought my way to it, working for over a year and a half before I got my shot and seized the brass ring. Now people are getting title shots right out of the gate, and Mark Jones, who hasn't been on the roster a whole calendar year, has become one of the longest reigning CWW Champions in history! Well, as I said, it goes back to a decline in quality. That was why I couldn't stay away. I couldn't watch my legacy being tarnished like it was. That is why I came out and confronted Jordan and Kalvin, and that is why I attacked Michael Chains. Michael is only the first, certainly not the last. I am here to bring respect and awe back to CWW...or to bring CWW down."

*Dustin surprises the crowd by leaving it at that before he rolls out of the ring and heads towards the back, leaving questions abound.*
