The video begins to play and we see AJ Helms standing in what appears to be a hotel room. He’s wearing his street clothes, a pair of jeans and an Honour Code t-shirt, a flat cap on his head. What’s most striking though, is the angry expression that sits on his face as he paces backwards and forwards a few times, breathing heavily. Eventually however, he comes to a half and glares into the camera as he begins to speak.

AJ HELMS: “When I stepped in front of the camera the day after Breakdown, in order to film my promo for Under Attack, I told myself I’d keep it relative. I told myself I wouldn’t let my emotions get the better of me because I wanted my promo to give attention to the match and everything surrounding it. I know I started by talking about Orlando, but given how my partner tomorrow night is Lando’s brother, it felt relevant. What I didn’t talk about though, is something that I really wanted to, and under normal circumstances I would do, but with how all over the place my head’s been this last two weeks I didn’t want the distraction. See, what I should have spoken about, is that fucking little bitch, Lexi Von Aaron and the bullshit she pulled on Breakdown the other night! I didn’t even know if filming this was a good idea; it’s definitely not SCW-endorsed, I know that. I’m uploading this to youtube, an account that no one even knows is mine, one I had when I was in school before you even knew the AJ Helms name… guess that’s not such a secret anymore, huh? But I couldn’t sit back and let this shit bubble through my head because tomorrow night I have a match that’s been weeks in the waiting, a shot at the World Tag Team championships and I need my head on straight before that bell rings, so I need to get some shit off my chest and that stuff starts with that fucking ass-hat I just mentioned!”

As AJ pauses, Scarlett walks into the shot and stands next to AJ, her hands folded in front of her chest as she stands there, glaring down the lens of the camera. Scarlett definitely looks a little worse for wear still, a bandaid on her forehead and wincing a little as she moves her arms into a more comfortable position in front of her.

AJ HELMS: “Lexi… I’m fucking through with dealing with your shit. I thought you took the hint when we unfortunately had to work that fucking job together on Monday, I thought I made it perfectly clear that you are fucking delusional if you think I’m ever going to leave the most beautiful woman I’ve ever met for you! You’re twenty-two fucking years old Lexi, but you’re acting like a twelve-year-old who’s crush doesn’t like them back! In fact, I’d say twelve year olds probably know not to go up and punch their crush’s girlfriend in the school yard because their crush isn’t into them… and I know I probably shouldn’t expect anything better from you, because while you and your brother may not be on speaking terms, he’s not exactly the sharpest knife in the drawer either, so obviously it’s hereditary stupidity but will you wake the fuck up and smell the coffee Lexi, I want nothing to do with you what… so… ever! Or at least I didn’t until Wednesday night…”

AJ actually laughs, but it’s cold and lacking any humour what so ever.

AJ HELMS: “See, I had to get this shit off my chest because I can’t bottle it up until after Sunday, but believe me, once Sunday is over with, I’ve got a new target… because I’m tired of trying to just get a message through to that head of yours, instead I’m going to beat that fucking message into you! And no, that wasn’t a sophomoric euphemism, I’m literally going to kick your ass until you get the fucking hint! You want to put your hands on Scarlett, you want to attack her? Oh sweetheart… up until now I’ve just been trying to ignore you, but I’m not doing that anymore! I’m tired of ignoring you, I’m tired of hoping that you’ll get the hint or just decide to shift your psychotic infatuation onto somebody else, but watching you change your name to Lexi Helms on twitter, watching you talk about how you love me… well, I can take so much, but the minute you put your hands on Scarlett on Wednesday night, that was the end of the fucking line! After Sunday, win lose or draw in that tag match? I want you next. That match in Paris… if you can call it a match that is… well, let’s just say it’s time for round two and this time it will be a fight Lexi. Because I’m fucking done. Done!”

As AJ finishes, Scarlett unfolds her arms and steps forward, placing a hand on AJ’s shoulder, and the teenager actually takes a step back so Scarlett becomes the focus.

SCARLETT PEARSON: “I’m going to keep this really simple, Lexi… you’ve been bugging me and poking at me and… and pissing me off for months now. You think I’m some southern belle, the good at heart girl from Louisiana, who won’t do anything about you trying to steal AJ from me because I’m just too nice, don’t you? Well you don’t know the half of it! I want you to listen and listen well Lexi, because we’re not playing games anymore. Next time I see you, I’m going to slap that smirk off your face, bitch!”

Scarlett turns around and suddenly kisses AJ, and despite startling the New Jersey native a little, his slips an arm around her waist and kisses her back before Scarlett breaks it off and turns to look back over her shoulder at the camera.

SCARLETT PEARSON: “That’s love, Lexi… what you have? Nothing but delusions. You want to know what else you have? You’ve got an overprotective girlfriend looking to claw your fucking eyes out! I’ll see you real soon Lexi… real soon…”

And with that, with a glare from Scarlett and a smirk from AJ, the scene fades to black.
