Eli Drake’s It’s a Fact of Life with Special Guest Ethan Carter III:
Drake is Bound for Gold, so guess what? Drake doesn’t want the dummies to talk back to him. His guest is a man who’s had the rocket strapped so far up his keyster, he’s surprised there’s no rocket fuel. Meanwhile this guest lost his opportunity at Bound for Glory, you know him as the choke artist, it’s Ethan Carter III. Drake says that nobody wants to listen EC3’s stupid song. When Eli Drake walked down the ramp, he heard a roar like he’s never heard, and that’s the undeniable kevorka of Eli Drake, something EC3 has been trying to get for so long but can’t. Matter of fact, EC3 had the shot to become the TNA World Champion, but he didn’t quite make it, did he?
EC3 tries to answer, but Drake hit’s the dummy button. EC3 blew it, dummy yeah. EC3 tells Drake to not touch that dummy button again. EC3 has trained for a year to be the World Champion and he lost, and he won’t make any excuses, but his passion has been replaced with anger and determination. EC3’s goal is to regain the TNA World Heavyweight Championship, so he’s not going to sit here with Eli Drake because he’s Bound For Gold, and he should be focused on winning the most important title in the world, and if he hits that button one more time, he’s going to end Drake piece by piece. EC3 will piss on Drake’s ashes. EC3 is begging Drake to press the button, so he could kick his ass.
Drake shoves the dummy button away. Want to know what Drake’s problem with EC3 is? Drake was brought in as the third member of the Rising, but he’s here in this position and he’s Bound For Gold even though he wasn’t meant to be. Drake goes online and reads that he’s not in EC3’s league, and EC3’s been doing a lot with what he’s been given, but that’s the thing, it’s been given to him. EC3 rode the elevator all the way to the top. Drake had to fight and claw his way to the top, and it’s still not enough because EC3 is still way above him, and he’s going to show him that EC3 isn’t even in his league and that’s not an insult, it’s just a fact of life. Drake the production crew his mic off because this show is over walks out of the set.
