<The scene opens in Phoenix, Arizona. A private ceremony for Eddie Guerrero was held in honor of his memory. As this private ceremony begins to come to an end, a shadow behind all of Eddie's good friends begins to fade behind a huge oak tree. Eric Hardcastle, dressed in a black suit, turns to head for his car. He reaches into his suit pocket and slips on a pair of shades. He wipes away the signs of flowing tears from his face.>
Eric Hardcastle: Today has been an overly emotional day. For today, we laid to rest a good friend. You know....its weird, I have been in almost a state of denial since Sunday morning. Not wanting to believe that he was really gone. Not wanting to believe in my heart of hearts, that I lost a friend. And as a fan of pro wrestling, WE ALL LOST ONE OF THE BEST!
<Eric shakes his head and takes a deep breath.>
Eric Hardcastle: This Sunday, I am gonna have the honor of wrestling in the main event of Valor's Eddie Guerrero Memorial Show. A show put on to honor the life of Eddie, not mourn his loss. And what a perfect venue to host this event. The Sun Bowl in El Paso, Texas. The hometown of Eddie and all of the Guerrero's. My sources say that a few of Eddie's family will be in attendance this weekend. I only hope that we can do a little justice to the career of Eddie Guerrero this weekend.
<Eric reaches into his pocket and pulls out his remote door opener. He presses the unlock button and his BMW 6 series squawks and the headlights flash. He pauses before opening the door and turns towards the camera.>
Eric Hardcastle: So the main event features six man tag action. Zmaster, The Creeper and myself will face off against Ron Tibbs, Immune and the World Champion himself, Brandon Bailey. Its hard to stay focused on my own selfish goals, when I just had to bury a good friend. But Eddie would want it that way. Eddie would want the show to go one.......and thats literal, when talking about me. This Sunday, I'll have a perfect set of partners. I got two, count'em two, 7 foot monsters on my side. And one of those 7 foot monsters is about an inch away from losing his composure and tearing into Immune like a hungry wolf. But for me.......I'm looking across that ring and seeing nothing but Brandon Bailey. The same Brandon Bailey, who has spent the better part of six months, trying to destroy my life. To take from me....to destroy me. With just one week away till Deadly Encounter and The Hell On Earth match, I'm a little off kilter here. But fear not, once the bell sounds this Sunday, I know what I have to do. I know I have the support of my team mates and I know that we will emerge from Sunday Night Slam....victorious. Much like I plan to emerge from Deadly Encounter. The stakes have never been higher. Title versus career. Someone is gonna have their entire world shattered in an instant.
<Eric opens his car door. He unbuttons his jacket.>
Eric Hardcastle: But thats next week. This week, its about Eddie Guerrero. Its about celebrating his life and his career. This ones for you Eddie.
<Eric pounds his heart and points to the sky. A single tear falls from under his shades, as Eric smiles slightly. He hops into his BMW and closes the door behind him, as he puts the key to the ignition. Screen fades to black.>
