[Joe Gacy is standing in the ring with a microphone]
Joe Gacy: You know, there comes the point in every boy's life where he has to become a man, and at CZW, CZ fuckin W "Seventeen", seventeen years! I have been here for going on almost ten years now, and whether it was coming out here with Alex Colon demanding respect from you people, whether it was me and Ryan Slater coming out here trying to beat somebody up, whether me and Sami Callihan came out here and tried to tie a rope around DJ Hyde's neck, I have always bled, cried, sweat, black and yellow. And before your very eyes, [Joe points and looks at the hard cam] before your very eyes, this boy has grown up, and I think this boy has become a man.
And for the last year, for the last year I've went through hell. Tim Donst, you put me through hell taking something that meant the world to me, the CZW Wired Championship, and at Cage of Death I threw your ass off of that platform right there [Joe points off screen] right after you quit. Now I know a few years ago I had an opportunity. An opportunity that I quite don't think I was ready for when I was put in the ring with MASADA at the time, but I think it's about damn time now. Put me in the ring with Matt Tremont, I want a world title shot!
[Greg Excellent's theme music hits and he enters the ring with Chrissy Rivera. Chrissy hands Greg a microphone and encourages Greg to "tell him!"]
Greg Excellent: [Greg points at Joe] There is nothing wrong that he said. Everything he said was absolutely true. Give it up for Joe Gacy! [The fans applaud and chant "Joe!"] I've traveled with Joe, I've worked with Joe, I've hung out with Joe, and I've never had a problem with Joe until about thirty-eight seconds ago. Now I want to make sure that what you see here [Greg points to the hard cam] is what they see there [Greg points to the locker room], right? So, whoever's back there, clear out the four locker rooms and tell the boys to circle around. [Greg turns back to the hard cam] I just don't fucking get this shit anymore. I don't get it. [The fans cheer and chant "Shoot!" at Greg. Greg turns to them] You want me to shoot? I'm going to shoot.
You bring up "Seventeen." For eight and a half God damn years I have been here, I have bled, I have giggled, I have laughed, I have sweat, I have cried, while mother fuckers come in here and use this place as a stepping stone to where they think the grass is greener - fuck em! While I sit here and we book em' all, and we're left with Greg getting the scraps. Well I'm a large man and I'm God damn hungry. Eight and a half years. We give out World title shots in this company like we're fucking Oprah: "you get a title shot!" "you get a title shot!" "you get a title shot!" But hey, here's the funny guy that doesn't get one, right?
Hell, you know what? The fuckin' Death Machine's back. The Death Machine is back in the Combat Zone, let's give him one! Hey! Hey! The Golden Boy is here tonight. The Psycho Shooter. Turn the fucking cameras off, let's give him a title shot! [See Note 1] Hey! I got a better idea! How about, I go home, I bake a cake, I stick a fucking file in it, I send it to Nick Gage, and in six God damn months, he can have a title shot too!
I am sick and tired of the connotation that I'm just here to be here. Absolutely not. So let me tell you - I don't care if you're an "Ultraviolent Beast", I don't care if you're a "Deathmatch Drunkard", I don't care if you're the "Whole Foxin' Show", if you're "Amazing", if you want me to "Look At It", if you're "Phenomenal", if you're "The Cerebral Assassin", if you're a "Bulldozer", [Greg walks over to Joe and looks him in the face] or a God damn "Chainsaw" [See Note 2], [Greg turns back to the hard cam] from here on out, the World Title comes through me! Now, you can like it, or you can not, either way, [Greg walks towards Joe again] I'm getting what I want. Your move, kid.
[Greg drops the microphone and stares down Joe before leaving to boos from the crowd.]
- Note 1: "The Golden Boy" and "Psycho Shooter" are nicknames of former CZW World Heavyweight, Junior Heavyweight Champion, and Tag Team Champion Drake Younger. Drake was in attendance at the event and inducted into the CZW Hall of Fame. At the time, Drake was working for WWE as a referee under his real name of Drake Wuertz. Because he was in WWE, the segment could not be aired on iPPV or released on DVD, which is why Greg insinuated that the cameras would need to be turned off for Drake to receive a title match.
- Note 2: The nicknames in the section refer to, in order, MASADA, Danny Havoc, AR Fox, Drew Gulak and Rory Gulak, David Starr, AJ Styles, Triple H, Matt Tremont, and Joe Gacy.
