As we returned from commercial break, cameras are zoomed in and focused on a plaque that was hung on a door backstage and it read 'AJ STYLES' on it. In the background could we hear some negative responses from the crowd because of what has happened the past couple of weeks and they only continued once the camera zoomed out enough to reveal a man standing in front of that very same door. It was the Advocate to the Beast Incarnate, and the man who's helped make AJ Styles' career one roller coaster of a ride these past couple of months, Paul Heyman. He hesitated a bit before raising his hand up to the door and he then proceeded to knock on it before reaching down to push the door open, clearly not caring if he was actually welcome or not.[PAUL HEYMAN]I must say, I've been... I've been flabbergasted at the sudden change in character, AJ... but at the same time, I'm sure we all saw it coming because every man has his own breaking point. I'm just glad that you have finally reached yours and maybe we can see AJ Styles' full potential now that he isn't pandering and sucking up anymore. I've always known that you are capable of doing great things and like I said before, I've always been a big fan of yours... but it's hard for me to support a man who cares more about random nobodies in the crowd more than he does himself. Because these fans, they may put the money in your wallet and food on your table, but they will continue to show up no matter how you treat them. I can go out there and praise them or I can go out there and expose them and no matter what, they keep on coming back... And I'm happy to say that you have finally realized that they are nothing more than background noise.
Then Heyman proceeded to bring his hands together, actually clapping for the man who he has basically tortured since this past May where everything between the two of them, and Brock Lesnar, truly began.[PAUL HEYMAN]And no, I didn't come here to harm you or anything like such. Brock Lesnar is not with me as you can tell. I know what you're capable of, everyone is after what has happened these past two weeks, but I am still not scared of you. You are still the same man who can't beat Brock Lesnar deep down inside and if you want to harm me then you go right ahead, but just know what is waiting for you if you so choose to lay a finger on me. Your kryptonite, Brock Lesnar, will not let it slide.
AJ slowly walks into the view of the camera from the other side of his locker room. AJ's World Title belt can be seen hanging on the wall directly behind him. AJ slowly approaches Heyman and only comes to a stop when he's directly in front of him. (AJ Styles)Relax Paul, I've got no issues with you as of now, but I'd advise you not give me a reason to have an issue with you Mr. Heyman, because as Matt Sydal has learned over the last 2 weeks, having an issue with AJ Styles nowadays, can result in some very painful and unfortunate consequences.
(AJ Styles)But let's not focus on hypothetical situations right now Paul, let's talk about the here and now, reality, and the current reality for AJ Styles is that I have HAD THE KNIFE STUCK IN MY FREAKIN BACK BY THOSE TURNCOAT TRAITORS KNOWN AS THE XWL UNIVERSE!!!
AJ seems to have lost his cool a bit as he spoke about the XWL Universe, his voice was ripe with anger and disdain towards them. AJ's made no effort to hide the fact that he feels betrayed by the XWL Universe, he felt as though they were by his side through thick and thin, through the up's and down's, but now AJ feels as though they've betrayed him for a guy they themselves couldn't stand for over half a year. (AJ Styles)Ya see Paul, you may be a snake, but you're no fool, as a manager and a businessman, you've been around the block more times in this industry then I care to even imagine. So you of all people would understand and realize that I have spent my ENTIRE career doing things the right way for those hacks. And yet, they have the nerve, the down right audacity to sit out there BOO me for doing them a damn favor and putting that little golden weasel in his place.
AJ would then slowly begin to pace around the locker room as his anger began to grow by the second.(AJ Styles)The same little golden weasel who DROVE THEM INSANE FOR OVER 6 MONTHS STRAIGHT WITH ALL OF HIS GOLDEN BULLCRAP!!! The stupid, horrifically drawn out, and downright irritating entrance, the stupid "admit one" robe, the golden attires, all of it, it made them sick. As soon as his music would hit the speakers, people would be turning the channel. Social media was FLOODED with tweets, posts, and even snapchats to XWL's snapchat page from fans wanting
#SydalGoneForGood. Well it turns out, all those people were freakin hypocrites, liers, and downright posers, because apparently, deep down, they REALLY DIDN'T WANT Sydal gone for good, because when one of their most beloved superstars went out and got the job done for them, they turn around and stick the knife in my back as fast as they could.
AJ feels as though he's 100% in the right for his actions towards Matt Sydal, but the fans, they have a different opinion on things, and rightfully so, because there's no doubt, AJ was merciless and malicious towards Matt Sydal, he crossed the line, not once, but twice, but that matters not to the Phenomenal One as he continued to pace around his locker room while speaking to Heyman. (AJ Styles)That punk stole my title, he stole your client's title, he caused Me and your client nothing but misery, he'll you could probably get a legal team together and go after him for some damages in court, pain and mental suffering, could probably make your client a fair bit of cash, might even empty that weasel's little bank account, since most of his paychecks are going to his medical bills these days.
It's true, even with the best of insurance, medical bills are pricey these days, and with the Golden Ticket's love and thirst for everything that's gold, one has to imagine he's not exactly "rolling in dough" right now.(AJ Styles)These people have no class Paul, and I must say, me and you don't agree on alot of things, we don't see things the same way most of the time, but I'm man enough to admit I was wrong on this one, and you were right, those fans out there are fickle, they'll turn on you in a damn second, and it's not worth the pain and suffering to do every single thing by the book for their viewing pleasure. So now, they can blame themselves for the new AJ Styles they are going to be seeing from now on, an AJ Styles with no chains, no restrictions, and no limits, nothing is going to hold me back anymore. From now on, I'm gonna be doing things MY WAY, the P1 Way, and if you people here tonight and watching around the world have a problem with that, then you all can kiss the Phenomenal One's ass!!!
AJ made sure people understood his last few words right there as he looked directly into the camera while saying them. AJ's officially DONE with the XWL universe, and quite frankly, at this point, the feeling is mutual. AJ's not gonna worry about pandering to crowd's anymore, he's gonna do things his way from this point forward, and only time will tell whether that will be the best thing to happen to his storied career, or one of the biggest mistakes he's ever made.
(AJ Styles)Now as for Breakthrough, I've got no problem with Layla's little "announcement" she made earlier tonight, Sydal may as well be a ghost in that match, it's like he won't even be there, he wasn't a threat to me and your client before, and he damn sure isn't a threat now, but let me tell you who is a threat to your client Mr. Heyman, YOU'RE LOOKIN at him!!! Now I know exactly what you're going to say, you're going to bust out the AJ Styles has never pinned or submitted Brock Lesnar, and you'd be 100% correct in making that statement Paul, but understand one thing, and feel free to go ahead and underestimate me like I know you and your client will, but just know, this isn't the same AJ Styles that Brock has dealt with over the last 7 months, and your client is going to learn that lesson the hard way at Breakthrough.
Heyman, despite trying his best to keep a straighter face, couldn't help but laugh. He was laughing at this 'threat' that was being said by the World Champion. New attitude or not, did AJ Styles really think that a change in attitude would chang Brock Lesnar's viewing of him? In his dreams.[PAUL HEYMAN]My client is going to learn that lesson...? Did I hear you correct? I knew you've been a lot more angry, ruthless even, these past two weeks but... but I didn't expect you to become delusional in the process of this change in attitude of yours. A change in attitude doesn't change the fact that Brock Lesnar can lift a man of your size with one of his hands. A change in attitude doesn't change the fact that Brock Lesnar is the most dangerous man in this business. A change in attitude isn't going to save you come Breakthrough when Brock Lesnar is allowed to do whatever he wants to you without anyone being able to stop him. Not the referee. Not Layla. Not even Vince McMahon can stop him.
The Advocate drifted out into a pause as his face wore this sinister look on it, surely letting his mind wonder off to think about all the ways that Brock Lesnar could torture the two men that he would be stepping into the ring with.[PAUL HEYMAN]But perhaps I could be wrong since you are The Phenomenal One after all. One of the best wrestlers in the world today, regardless of who likes you and who dislikes you. You could finally do what you've never done and that is pin, or submit, Brock Lesnar. Or you could take the easy way out and you could target Matt Sydal and win by choosing to send him packing with a Styles Clash. It's a triple threat and anything is possible... but I do not want you to get ahead of yourself because of this new attitude of yours. You have yet to prove yourself as champion still.
Heyman then brought his hands together, as if he was begging to the Champion.[PAUL HEYMAN]AJ, I beg of you to do me a favor. I beg of you to be the smart man that I know you are. You might have done what you did to Matt Sydal, and while I'm taking nothing away from you, I want you to realize that Brock Lesnar stands on a different level than Matt Sydal. Brock Lesnar is a god among men. I am a Jewish Man without any shame but Brock Lesnar, that man makes me believe that there is a god - and if you think that because you are capable of doing something to Matt Sydal that you are capable of doing the same thing to Brock Lesnar, you're stupider than that haircut of yours.
AJ chuckles slightly at Heyman's insult directed at his hair.(AJ Styles)Very funny Paul, what are ya in the 2nd grade? jokes about by my haircut? I thought an intelligent walrus such as yourself would be able to come up with something better then that, guess I was wrong on that one, just like I was wrong about the XWL Universe being loyal to the Phenomenal One after all I've done for them over the years.
As AJ spoke about the XWL Universe, the look on his face intensified by the word. It's clear that AJ feels betrayed by the people he thought were true fans of his over the years.
AJ paces around the locker room before stopping in his tracks and turning back towards Heyman, almost as if he was in deep thought momentarily and hatched an idea out of nowhere. (AJ Styles)Look Paul, I don't like you, and I certainly don't like your client, BUT, this is a new AJ Styles, maybe the new AJ Styles just may be able to reach some common ground with the Beast Incarnate and his advocate. Me and Brock, we still got a score to settle, but quite frankly, we can't exactly settle that score with that golden cripple Matt Sydal getting in our way at Breakthrough. That little weasel has no business being in that match in the 1st place, but ya know how he got there? at the expense of myself and your client Brock Lesnar. And if I know you and Brock like I know I do, then I'm sure you 2 haven't forgot about that.
AJ rubs his hands through his beard as it appears the ideas are flowing into his head all at once, he takes a moment to process them before conveying them to Heyman. (AJ Styles)So how bout this, how's about AJ Styles and Brock Lesnar put our differences aside for the time being and turn a new leaf. What if The Phenomenal One and The Beast Incarnate got on the same page just long enough to exterminate the Golden Weasel from the equation at Breakthrough. That way, it can just be Me and Brock, one last time, no rules, no regulations, and no irritating nusance to get in our way. And then, we can see once and for all, who the real champion of the world really is around here.
Heyman stared blankly at the champion for just a little before he brought a hand up to his face, hiding the smile that began to toy onto his face. That smile soon changed to laughter and it almost became a little too much for him to hide anymore.[PAUL HEYMAN]You're joking... aren't you? Please, AJ. Please, for the love of god, tell me you are joking right now because if you think my client holds any interested in working with you then you must be letting this new found attitude of yours get to your head. My client, if he wanted to get rid of Matt Sydal, he would on his own. You might need his help but Brock Lesnar does not need the help of AJ Styles. Brock Lesnar would rather break AJ Styles and end his World Heavyweight Championship reign before it even began. Rip every hair from the top of your head and leave you as a giant pile of blood, broken bones, and piss.
The Advocate then took a step closer and lowered his voice, but the venom in it became more noticed.[PAUL HEYMAN]Not even God himself can save you from Brock Lesnar. Pray as long and hard as you want for it won't matter because at the end of the night, the only God that you will be praying to for mercy is Brock Lesnar.
Heyman unleashes his smug and evil smile at AJ before turning around and exiting the Phenomenal One's locker room. AJ watches as Heyman exits the locker room and judging by the look on his face, he seems slightly stunned, maybe with a hint of worry sprinkled in, but AJ shrugs it off as he utters to himself "
Fine, I don't need you and your stupid client anyways, I'm the best in the world, I'll do things my way, the P1 way"......
AJ walks over to his title belt and unhooks it from the latch on the wall, he places it over his shoulder before turning to face the camera crew. (AJ Styles)Get the hell out of my locker room, I've got a match to prepare for.
The camera crew walks backwards out of AJ's locker room to capture as much footage of the World Champ as possible before getting the door slammed in their faces on the way out courtesy of the Phenomenal One. Anarchy then heads to a commercial break.
