Oh so close.
{Bane Industries - Dallas, Texas}
The name plate on the door reads “Macentyre Bane - CEO”, the door swings open to reveal Bane sitting at his desk pouring over reports and emails. The white button down shirt is cuffed at the elbows and as he stands we can see the tail of the shirt is untucked on one side as he walks around and leans back on his desk. He holds a picture in his hands and the camera zooms in on it revealing a beautiful blonde woman and a teenager with short cropped light brown hair. He looks up and begins to think out loud.
Mac Bane: You allude to things that most of IWF know nothing about Sephiroth, you have done your homework of that there is no doubt at all. You have made some fairly educated guesses about things that you can see on video or listen to on audio. The woman you refer to as Michelle was a woman hired by the promotion to play the part of my wife, because at that time I was not comfortable allowing the world to see the real life that I have led.
He holds up the picture for the camera to see again.
Mac Bane: Marissa and I have been married for fifteen years. My son Robert James or R.J. as he prefers to be called is fourteen. Your damn right I’m proud that he has chosen to follow in my footsteps, what father wouldn’t be?!
He looks around a very plush office adorned with expensive wall hangings and furniture crafted by the finest workmen in America.
Mac Bane: I would rather him follow me to a wrestling ring than have to fight battles in corporate america.This shark tank is far worse than anything anyone backstage could come up with.
He picks up the name plate on his desk, showing it to the camera he grimaced a little.
Mac Bane: This, all of this is a part of who I am, you see people in promotions all over the country trying to portray themselves as a rich oil man for the sake of television. This is part of who I am, I don’t show this because of some gimmick or need to promote self importance to the television audiences around the world.
He goes back behind his desk and sits down in the high back leather chair. He leans back resting his eyes for a moment.
Mac Bane: Betrayal, now there is an interesting topic is it not? Yes I have been betrayed by many and I would not consider taking on just any tag team partner again. My days of carrying other men and women to greatness are over. Should I take on another alliance of any kind it would be with one who is at my level. One who has the same goals. One like yoursel…
Bane stops in mid sentence and presses his index finger to his upper lip. An amused smile plays across his face.
Mac Bane: Many years ago when I teamed with Spike Kane they called it, “When bad and evil meet.” But, that would just be insane. It is at least something to ponder. But, if you and I wanted to give them something to fear that in itself would give Kane and his lackey’s nightmares.
Bane swings the monitor he had been staring at around for all to see, the bio of Shozan Okata sits there.
Mac Bane: Do you know what this is? This is a profile of a man known as “The Japanese Storm Trooper”. He is a wise man I would say. It was mentioned that he had not said a word about this match. He is either pissing himself right now or he is wise beyond his years. I’m betting he is pissing his pants but that’s really just an educated guess. Okata is not an uncertainty Seph, that is one part you were wrong about. He is a casualty. The only way he plays a role in this match at all is if he hides under the ring and waits for us to destroy each other and at that point he dives in trying to score a pin. He will not have that opportunity, his fate is sealed.
He swings the monitor back around in place and stand up resting the knuckles of his hands on the polished wood surface, he leans forward glaring at the camera.
Mac Bane: Sephiroth, I have no doubts. You may be a legend and you certainly have my respect but I’m not some star struck teenager or young wrestler who trembles when you walk into the room. when I was young like Okata my mind was full of doubts, I anticipated my dreams and hopes being shattered by men like you. I was afraid of success at that time. I have tasted success everywhere I have been, doubt is not something that clouds my judgement. You have always known who and what you were, you know that you are the fear that resides in the hearts of men, you are the lord of the night. I know who and what I am as well Sephiroth, I know what I am capable of, I’m a warrior, I’m something to fear not to hunt!

Well howdy there pardner.
