We fade into a shot of Walker Sullivan, sitting on his bed inside his hotel room. Walker is working out as he’s prepping in his room for Walker. Walker stands up and sits on the bed, and begins to speak.

Passion. Passion is one of the greatest feelings in the world. We all know it and we’ve all had a passion for something at one time or another. François de La Rochefoucauld, a famous French writer, once said about passion, “Passion makes idiots of the cleverest of men, and makes the biggest idiots clever”. Everyone in the world is passionate about something. Tom Cruise is passionate about acting, Michaels Phelps is passionate about swimming, Tiger Woods is passionate about golf, and several men in history have been so passionate about their religions that they were willing to die for what they believed in. Now most of us don’t have enough passion to be willing to die for something we are passionate about. Hell most of us play it safe and never chase our dreams, and they never get to live out their passion. Certain people change what they’re passionate about every month, but it doesn’t change the fact that they’re passionate about something. Now I don’t know what most people are passionate about. There are people who are so passionate about acting, but they just don’t have the talent to ever beat out someone for a part who has less passion for it than they do. Some people are passionate about sports, but are never given a chance to play them because of a birth defect. Some people sit in their rooms at night crying out to whoever they believe in asking them as to why haven’t they been given a shot to achieve their passion. I don’t know what your passion is, or whether you even have one, but I’m going to say you do.
Walker stands up and walks over to the dresser. Walker pulls out some deodorant and begins to put it on as he wore out all of it before do to his work out.

Passion for people means several different things. Now I don’t always know what those things are, but I know certain people believe passion is dedication, some people believe it is sacrifice, and some people believe passion is something that you always have. I don’t know which one I can say is true passion as it’s all a matter of perspective, but I can tell you my definition of passion. My definition of passion is something you’re willing to put your own life on the line for. Passion to me is having scars from several violent matches with people, but never taking time off to heal them. Passion to me is something that can’t be broken no matter how hard you try. Erik Stillings is passionate about things as well. What his passion is, I’m not sure of yet, but I would say it probably has something to do with money, clothing, women, and being talented beyond belief. I can’t say Erik is wrong for making those things his passion, as it’s what he truly wants in life, so who am I to judge him for making those things his passion? And honestly Erik and I are some of the more lucky people who pursue their passions. Erik has money, fancy clothing, attractive women, and he’s one of the best wrestlers in ICW, if not the best. While I’m living my passion by being a wrestler, now I’d be lying if I said it was always my passion to wrestle for ICW, but my passion wasn’t about who I wrestled for it was about wrestling.
Walker goes back over to the bed and removes his shirt revealing scars all over his body.
Walker Sullivan
I’m also passionate about my ICW Undisputed Championship (Walker points over to the desk where the title is sitting proudly). These scars are things I’ve received while trying to get, and defend what I’m passionate about. I received this scar (Walker points to a scar just above his cheek bone) when I fought in the nine man battle royal to determine the ICW Undisputed Champion when Chase McDaniels threw thumbtacks in my face. I got these scars (Walker points to several scars on his chest) when Thumbtack Jack dropped my body onto a pile of thumbtacks with the hangover, and I still kicked out. I’ve also managed to get back up after everything Erik and Harry have done to me due to passion. And if I suffer another scar while fighting Erik on Sunday at least it will be for something I’m passionate about. Erik was right when he said that he was more talented than I am and that I needed to accept that, and he’s right he’s more talented than I will ever be. But if he thinks talent is all you need to win a match then he’s dead wrong. Cause it doesn’t matter how much talent you have if the guy you are facing won’t let you keep his shoulders down for three seconds. And it doesn’t matter how talented you are when the guy you are facing won’t tap out no matter what you do. And Erik you may have the most talent in ICW but I won’t let you beat me on Sunday. Not because I want to beat you, not cause I think I’m better than you, and certainly not because I have more talent than you. I won’t let you beat me on Sunday because if you beat me on Sunday you will take away something I’m passionate about and that is the ICW Undisputed Championship.
Walker lays down on the ground and begins to do sit ups. And then a thought hits him, and he grabs a piece of paper from his desk and a pen and he begins to write.
Walker Sullivan
So Erik you may be more passionate about money, women, clothing, and being the most talented wrestler in ICW. But none of that will matter on Sunday, because I have enough passion for what I do to make sure you don’t beat me. You may be the heavy favorite to win this match, and hell you may get close to beating me several times but I WILL NOT let you pin me, and I WILL NOT submit to you. Do you know why I tell people we’re going to war Erik? I tell them that because war is a fight between people who are passionate about what they are fighting for. So on Sunday yeah we will be going to war, and I want you to know I’m going to put all of my passion and heart into this match. So Erik I don’t care what you hit me with cause when that match on Sunday is all done, you will hear Robby Culp say, “Winner and still ICW UNDISPUTED CHAMPION, WALKER SULLIVAN.” See I don’t care if you have an undefeated streak, and I don’t care if you’re the greatest talent in ICW I won’t let you beat me so I’ll see ya Sunday Erik, and you better suit up cause we’re going to WAR!
Walker places the piece of paper on his bed while he lays down on the floor and begins to do sit ups again. The camera man zooms in on the paper, and it says, “Nothing great in the world has been accomplished without passion.” The camera fades out on those words.
